The Painted Hills are one of the three units that comprise the John Day Fossil Beds. Take time to also visit the Clarno Unit, with Mars-like pillars formed by waterfalls and volcanic sludge, and the Sheep Rock Unit, where fossils of plants and animals like saber-toothed cats are on display at the Thomas Condon Paleontology Center. The hills get their name from the delicately colored stratifications in the soil and the yellows, golds, blacks and reds of the Painted Hills are best seen in the late afternoon. Tones and hue may appear to change from one visit to another, as the claystone differ with ever-changing light and moisture levels. Once you see them for yourself, it’s pretty easy to understand why the Painted Hills are one of the 7 Wonders of Oregon.

Crowheart, Wind River Indian Reservation, Fremont County, Wyoming: colorful formations, part of the Wind River Formation, located along U.S. Highway 26 between Crowheart and Dubois, within the Wind River Basin. These hills expose sedimentary layers deposited during the Eocene epoch, roughly 50 million years ago, consisting primarily of sandstone, siltstone, shale, and claystone. The vivid yellow, red, and purple hues of the geological strata result from varying iron oxidation states and mineral content within the sediments. This region illustrates classic basin-margin geology, where erosion of the adjacent Wind River Range exposed ancient fluvial and floodplain deposits, offering insight into Wyoming’s early Cenozoic landscape and climate.
