Dances_With_Wiener_Dogs Posted June 29, 2008 Share Posted June 29, 2008 I started to write a big involved thing about all of the surrounding attractions, how to get there, what to see, etc. Then I looked at my page count and realized that I’d kill at least half a small forest printing all of the stuff out, not to mention that many folks will just toss it anyway. Then I’d have to mail it down to the UN and I thought it’d be easier to assemble a list of links so that you can find what interests you. I’ll have my laptop at the UN, so if you want to look something up (and I’m around) then we can help you. John Day: John Day links Canyon City (3 miles south of JD): Oxbow Trade Company St. Thomas Episcopal Church Grant County Historical Museum Prairie City (14 miles east of JD): Prairie City history and links DeWitt Museum Sumpter (57 miles NW of JD) Sumpter Valley RR Wilderness, Forests and Monuments: John Day Fossil Beds National Monument Malheur National Forest Strawberry Mountain Wilderness Hot Springs (might be better in December?): Blue Mtn Weberg Mt Vernon Ritter I’m planning on visiting fire lookout towers, hoping the higher altitudes will stave off the heat. I believe that the JD area has the two tallest towers in the world, over 100’. Lotsa Links Rex’s Links More links I hope you’ll find some time to check out a few things that might interest you. See you in John Day! Link to comment
