The emptiest area in Oregon with just desert and lonely roads. Also called the Oregon High Desert. Burns and Ontario are in those two big southeast counties, but they're in the northern part of those counties so they're not really in Southeastern Oregon.
Always make sure you have gas in your car before you drive off to the deserts of Southeastern Oregon. There's no civilization there. If you run out of gas, you're fucked.
Careful not to have car trouble there. Getting help will be very difficult to do so.
I want to visit the Alvord Desert and the Pillars of Rome, but the drive takes forever.
