Event information

Walk in the Wheeler county seat where, for a small fee, you can really dig for plant fossils. You'll cover the whole town, east to west and north to south. Part of the experience is travelling up to the Columbia Plateau and viewing the expansive farmland and Cascade Volcanoes. You can also take a special route known as "The Journey Through Time Scenic Byway". Visit the Oregon Paleo Lands Institute and the Fossil Museum to complete the experience.
