Raise your voice for the Owyhee
Read this NYT article about the author's experience trekking through Oregon's Owyhee Canyonlands with ONDA staff.
Louse Canyon on the Upper West Little Owyhee River.
Although the New York Times
article confirms what few lucky Oregonians already know, the Owyhee
Canyonlands is one of Oregon's crown jewels that deserves permanent
protection: deep riverine canyons, red rock spires and rolling
sagebrush; at 2.1 million acres, it's the largest conservation opportunity in the continental United States.
