In her heyday, she was known as the “Queen City of the Mines,” and many folks still consider her so today. Baker City, in Eastern Oregon, thrived back when miners were picking, sieving and sluicing thousands of dollars of gold from the nearby mines. Nearby, “Whiskey Gulch” is said to have been the best source of gold at the time and is reputed to be the richest producing source of gold in Oregon. “Rich Gulch” and “Gold Creek” are just two of the other local drainages that produced gold too.

Baker City, Oregon When people think of Oregon and Washington, they seem to forget that the eastern half of the states are basically as far opposite as you can get from their lush, green, rainy coastlines. Baker City has the Elkhorn Mountains to the west and Eagle Cap Wilderness to the east, meaning there are miles of hiking trails, plus lakes and mountain rivers. It’s also one of the best starting points for the Hells Canyon Scenic Byway, a more than 200-mile-long iconic road.
