Where can you explore the wild Pacific coast, numerous national forests and wildlife refuges, rugged mountain chains (including the tail end of the Cascades), and a unique national park? Head for the southwest corner of Oregon, a region with an awesome diversity of scenery and outdoor recreation: Stroll along wind-blown dunes, paddle down deep canyons, hike into the backcountry, or pedal a crater's rim. While the tourist horde descends upon Yellowstone, Yosemite, and the Grand Canyon, you'll find that the great outdoors are just as great in Oregon.
