Sunset at the Painted Hills, found within the John Day Fossil Beds National Monument in central Oregon. Jamie Hale/The Oregonian
Sunsets at the coast are nice, but for one of the most colorful dusk experiences in Oregon you’ll need to head into the heart of the high desert.
The Painted Hills, which are just one piece of the sprawling John Day Fossil Beds, are plenty colorful in their own right. Seen in the fading light of day, they’re even more beautiful than usual.
