Page "Grant County, Oregon" Paragraph 10

The elevation of the county varies from 1, 820 on the John Day River near Kimberly, to at the summit of Strawberry Mountain.

The terrain of the county varies from grassland steppes and rangelands in relatively open or rolling hills and valleys, to steep, rugged, rocky high-alpine landscapes.

Between these, the county contains heavily timbered land, many rolling hills, canyons and mountainous terrain.

Portions of the county are technically high desert, dominated by sagebrush and sparse grasses.
