In early June I visited the Jarbidge Mountains of Northeast Nevada to attempt Matterhorn Peak. My travel route passed through Oregon’s Blue Mountains. As I passed through I hiked several prominence peaks there. Deep snow and high water conditions in the Jarbidge Mountains frustrated my plans there. But hiking peaks in the Blue Mountains proved to be the highlight of my trip.
Oregon’s Blue Mountains are uplift mountains located in Northeast Oregon and Southeast Washington. This mountain range consists of several subranges and is a part of the larger Columbia River Plateau.
