Booth State Scenic Corridor, State park in Lake County, Oregon, United States.
Booth State Scenic Corridor is a 318.6-acre state park in eight parcels along Oregon Route 140, about 12 miles west of Lakeview. It is covered with medium-density conifer forest, mainly ponderosa pine and western juniper. The site has a picnic area, vault toilets and a small parking area; overnight camping is no longer offered.
Robert A. Booth, president of Oregon Land and Live Stock Company, donated the initial 50 acres in 1928 to establish this corridor. During the 1930s, the Civilian Conservation Corps expanded the infrastructure and added more facilities to the original land contribution.
The Civilian Conservation Corps shaped the place during the 1930s by building picnic areas and gathering spots. These developments changed how people in the region spend time outdoors and enjoy nature together.
The place is easily accessible along Oregon Route 140 with free parking available during the day. It is wise to check what facilities are available before your visit, as access and amenities may vary by season.
The corridor lies at about 1,574 metres on the slopes below Fox Hill, whose summit rises to 1,892 metres about 1.5 km to the west. The surrounding land is mostly shrub-steppe, with springs and canals nearby, and the climate is hemiboreal, averaging 10 °C.
