    Lakeview to Steens Mountain Back Country Byway Overview

    Published on Dec 10, 2008

    The Lakeview to Steens Mountain Back Country Byway offers panoramic views of Oregon’s high Great Basin Desert. In the distance, snowcapped mountains hover over remote horizons, while mirages shimmer in the hot desert sun above dry lakebeds. Sagebrush grows so thick that it appears as a gray carpet blanketing rolling hills, broken by an occasional canyon or rim rock lava flow.
