area.
1865 and originally known as Brownsville,La Grande is now the regional hub ofcommerce and education. With a populationof about 13,000, La Grande is the UnionCounty seat and the largest city in the region. La Grande is the home of Eastem Oregon University, which adds an amazingdepth of cultural, athletic and diverse amenities to the community. Those who haverelocated to La Grande find intriguing andexciting the mix of a lzd-back place withno congestion and short commutes andthe "big city" offerings of dance, theatre,sporting events, and live music.
The city is the regional operations center for many state and federal agencies aswell as Union Pacific Railroad. The originalOregon Trail runs right through La Grande,as does the Grande Ronde River and Interstate 84.
La Grande is also the "jump-off" pointfor historic Joseph, popular Wallowa Lakeand the breathtaking Eagle Cap Wildemess

oca must umsFor thousands of years, Native Ameri
cans were drawn to the Grande RondeValley to hunt, gather food and to grazetheir horses. The abundant resourcesdrew several different and often warring tribes. For a few months duringthe summer, the Nez Perce, Cayuse,Umatilla, Walla Walla and the Shoshone tribes lived together in harmony inwhat they called 'The Valley of Peace."
Although settlers passed throughthe valley while en route along theOregon Trail in the early 1840s, fewwere willing to be deterred from theirWillamette Valley goal. But early in the1860s, many settlers took notice of theGrande Ronde Valley's resources, establishing farms and settlements. With thediscovery of gold, the valley prosperedand settlements thrived.
Along with peaceful settlers, cowboysand entrepreneurs, the region also drewoutlaws, horse thieves, and cutthroats,lending colorful names to many ofUnion County's landmarks. Thief Valley Reservoir eamed its name when aband of vigilantes hanged a horse thief,while Dead Man Pass memorializes thestruggles of the early pioneers.
Step onto history along B Avenue inthe oldest part of La Grande. Not onlydid wagons rumble down the hillsideat this historic spot, many set up campat what is now Bimie Park. Stop andenjoy the display by local artists commemorating this historic site and imagine life as an Oregon settler.
The first pioneer cabin was builton the comer of B Avenue and CedarStreet. The cabin has since been moved
to Gangloff Park along Hwy. 30 overlooking La Grande. Historians erecteda marker making it easy to find and tomemorialize the location.
You can literally walk in the footstepsof pioneers by stopping at the BlueMountain Crossing. Head west out ofLa Grande on 1-84 to exit 247 this willtake you right to the outdoor interpretive park — you can see where wagonwheels rubbed and scarred trees as theymade their way through the woods.
