Oregon Adventures
We are living in an amazing place: in under four hours you can drive by ocean, coastal forests, wetlands, prairies, oak savannas, temperate rainforests, coniferous forests, montane tundra, and high desert. And that doesn\’t even take into account specific ecoregions within larger ecosystems. After reflecting on your exam this week, take a moment to visit a local habitat, or make plans for a larger adventure.
