Oregon's Roadless Wildlands

Oregon Wild's work to safeguard our remaining unspoiled forests and wild areas.

#3.CathedralOGEast.Lonsdale.jpgImagine the most rugged, remote, and unspoiled landscape in Oregon.  A place where old-growth trees still tower above the land, where elk and other wildlife find vast areas of pristine, high-quality habitat.  A place where cold, clean streams still run free and provide a home for rainbow trout and other native fish.Oregon Wild Atlas-Oregon State Map

These kinds of wild, roadless lands are becoming harder and harder to find in Oregon.  And we owe it to our children and grandchildren to save what we have left.  For three decades, Oregon Wild has been working to do just that.
