説明 | Join the annual Great American Campout tonight! Find a great place to join the fun with #mypubliclandsroadtrip.While Steens Mountain looms to the west, the shimmering salt flats of the Alvord Desert in southeastern Oregon unfold to the east. Tens of thousands of years ago, a lake almost 200 feet deep covered the Alvord Desert and extended southward into Nevada. The old shoreline forms terraces along the edge of the valley, and deep under the desert floor are the same lava flows that make up the top of Steens Mountain.The Alvord Desert playa can be either wet or dry depending on the time of year, and is one of the largest playas in Oregon—six miles wide and 11 miles long. That means plenty of room for setting up a tent and peering up at the stars in the sky! |
