Embark on a scenic drive from Pendleton, Oregon, heading east on I-84 through the majestic Blue Mountains, where the landscape shifts from the rolling, sagebrush-covered plains to dense forests and rugged peaks. This route follows part of the historic Oregon Trail, where pioneers once trekked in covered wagons seeking new beginnings. As we wind through the mountains, the scenery offers breathtaking views of river gorges and lush greenery, eventually transitioning into the high desert of Eastern Oregon. The journey concludes in Boise, Idaho, where the modern cityscape contrasts beautifully with the natural beauty we’ve witnessed, providing a perfect end to a drive steeped in both natural splendor and historical significance.
This drive was filmed in early autumn.
