Off-The-Grid in Oregon's Wild East

Prepare yourself for a very different experience of the Pacific Northwest when you travel east of the Cascades. Swap lush landscapes, rocky coastline, and cloud-heavy skies for sagebrush plains, dusty canyons, and craggy mountains - all saturated in high desert sunshine and steeped in history. Travel back centuries in the steps of early settlers or millennia in fossil beds created by ancient floods. With all the ghost towns and wide open spaces, you may mistake Eastern Oregon for a lonely place, but we will connect you with friendly families who have been ranching, farming, and exploring this land for generations. As you spend time with them, they will connect you to their world in this remote, beguiling corner of the state.
