Umatilla National Forest
Oregon
Deep in Eastern Oregon lies a 1.4-million acre forest called"Umatilla" by local Native Americans, which means, "water rippling over sands." An odd name, to be sure, for an inland forest. But after a visit here you'll come to believe this national forest was named appropriately. The Blue Mountains cover this area like a sea of timbered slopes sprawling across ridges and valleys alike.
Like Lewis and Clark and Oregon Trail pioneers before you, exploration of the Umatilla will bring you to untamed wildlife, wild rivers and wilderness.
