Josephine

Josephine County stretches from the Rogue River Valley to the Siskiyou Mountains, encompassing forested valleys and rugged uplands in southwestern Oregon. The Rogue River crosses the county’s northern reaches, while the Illinois River flows through a more remote, heavily wooded south. Grants Pass, the county seat, is the principal urban centre and a long-standing base for river travel and regional services. In the Siskiyou foothills, Oregon Caves National Monument and Preserve protects a marble cave system. Gold discoveries during the 1850s drew early settlers to the area, leaving a lasting mark on the county’s history. Continue through nearby webcams to explore different parts of Josephine County.
