The John Day Fossil Beds National Monument sits in the southwestern portion of this landscape, marking a globally significant paleontological site within the high desert. The John Day River carves through the northern reaches, designated here as the John Day Wild and Scenic River, where it passes Twickenham and the fertile Liberty Bottom. This remote settlement area is characterized by sharp relief and deep drainage systems, including James Canyon and Big Canyon.
