About this park

Blue Mountain Forest State Scenic Corridor lies along the Old Oregon Trail Highway between Deadman's Pass and Spring Creek.

The forest has intermittent stands of old-growth ponderosa pine, western larch, Engelmann spruce, lodgepole pine and grand fir, with undisturbed native plants and animals. White-tailed and mule deer, Rocky Mountain elk and cougar live here.
