Wild Desert Calendar

Shannon Phifer   Website

Each year, Oregon Natural Desert Association shares awe-inspiring photography from Oregon’s dry side in our Wild Desert Calendar.

In this publication, you’ll enjoy dramatic eastern Oregon landscapes, captivating portraits of high desert plants and animals, inspiring prose, poetry, phases of the moon, meteor showers, wildflower blooms, migrating bird arrivals, and other high desert phenomena.

The Wild Desert Calendar is a benefit of ONDA membership. We send one complimentary calendar to all current members in late November. Donate to support desert conservation or renew your membership before November 1 to access this benefit.

Sample past calendars on our publications page.

“Oregon’s Owyhee reminds me a lot of Southern Utah’s red rock country… only dipped in fudge.”

“If I have to pick a favorite place in Oregon’s high desert, it would be Sutton Mountain, but I’m excited about all of the Wilderness Study Areas,” says Terry, adding, “Each is a gem to explore, and I hope they all get protection someday… I love the scale of the physical beauty of the desert.”
