Antelope straddles the transition between the Columbia Plateau and Oregon’s high desert in north-central Oregon, a position that has shaped its open, dry-rangeland character. Bunchgrass, basalt outcrops and broad skies define the surrounding country, while the Deschutes River cuts a canyon through the region to the west. Antelope’s modern history is remarkable for a small settlement: during the era of the nearby Rajneeshpuram commune, it was renamed Rajneesh in 1984 before returning to its original name in 1985. Today, it remains a quiet community in Wasco County. Continue with other webcams from the area to see how this part of north-central Oregon connects regionally.
