A perspective from Oregon’s mid-Willamette Valley

A fine place for getting away

Written September 25th, 2016 by Hasso Hering

Even after many years in the mid-valley, it’s possible to discover nearby destinations in the countryside that are off the beaten path but not all that remote. Here’s one such place, which I found the other day.


On a slow day, check out pheasants…

When you have extra time on your hands in the mid-valley, you may want to visit the bird cages at the E.E. Wilson Wildlife Area off Camp Adair Road in north Benton County. The Department of Fish and Wildlife has displayed pheasants and other game birds there for many years. (hh)


Springtime at E.E. Wilson

A quick visit to the E.E. Wilson Wildlife Area northwest of Albany on a pleasant spring day in March. The area’s paved and gravel roads without motor traffic make it an ideal place for an outing on your bike.
