I've spent a lot of time in Leslie Gulch over the last 40 years riding the trails on motorcycles and flying my ultralight. One of my favorite areas of Oregon. Next time you're there I recommend driving over to Three Finger Gulch and taking a hike. High clearance vehicle required but the canyon walls are spectacular. Early summer is best when the grass is tall and green. There are caves, a very old rock corral, and thousands of birds nesting in the cliffs. Just don't tell anyone about it!

Photographer's paradise, for sure. When I first photographed Leslie Gulch in 1965, I couldn't believe it was part of eastern Oregon.

I was grew up in John Day and covered most of that country back in the 70's. I think that is the area I remember seeing Mountain Goats when we were heading through Leslie Gulch on our way to Owyhee Reservoir. I don't know if they are still around, but I heard they had been re-introduced in a number of areas at some point in time. Speaking of wildlife: 10:50 Looks like Godzilla's back cresting up out from under the ground.
