Wallowa - An Oregon Wonder

- I was born and raised in Oregon and moved back here to retire. Over the years the I visited most areas of the state, except for the Northeast Wollawa mountain region. Finally, with no preparation, I packed up my video my camera, hopped in the car and drove out there to take a look. This video is what I found. It turned out to be a remarkable place with wonderful people.

I grew up in Wallowa County and my family still lives there. It will always be home! Greatest childhood a person could have
The recent upsurge in viewers for my Wallow program has been of interest. The show has been sitting on RUclips for over a year withe almost no one looking at it. Suddenly, this this past month it has had hundreds of viewer. RUclips must have put out a directive for the program. What made you watch it?
As a TV director retired back to my home state of Oregon, I did this show on a lark looking for something to do. I ad never visited Wallow before. Total budget: $62.18 for gasoline to and from my home in Portland (I have my own camera gear). Wallowa B&Bs put me up and the attractions open their door to me for a copy of the show. Local musicians did the music. It was great fun.

My wife and I have been vacationing there for the last nine years after purchasing an ORV travel trailer. They hold their customer appreciation rally there at Wallowa Lake. Absolutely beautiful area.
Nice video. I fondly remember attending Boy Scout Camp at Lake Wallowa in 1955/1956. Pretty country.

My dad took us up there every year and we loved it. My dad worked for the Forest Services retired in Walla Walla.
I was born and raised in this area (Enterprise) and would love to come back home some day soon. I go there every year - summers - and fish, visit friends. I'd live there if I could. Winters are kind of rough, but also beautiful. The life is so good, isolated at times, but now days you got Amazon. I do love Joseph - and the lake. You can't beat the beauty of this area.
Greg,
I appreciate you responding to my video about Wallowa County. It is a marvelous place. I was born and raised in Oregon but had never visited that north eastern county. In my 20s I left the state to pursue a career in television, but in retirement I came back to live in Portland. Once back I decided with to just blindly wander into Wallowa County with camera to see what might be there. The B&Bs put me up for free if I included them in the program, and the area musicians gave me perrmisssion to use their music. So I basically did the production for gas money. I will alway have a fondness for that beautiful place.

Loved the gondola ride to the top of the mountain ❤❤❤❤❤
Excellent video and commentary! I vacationed every summer at Wallowa Lake as a kid, and lived and worked in LaGrande for 10 years in the '90s. I always wanted to live in Wallowa County, and I've been trying to get back there ever since...
Wonderful! So many memories of bits to the Parent’s old friends the Davis family and their ranch. Then camping at the Wallow Lake Park camp ground. The “almost” meeting by t year old me walking back from the Ranger’s interpretive fire. My brothers had gone with me,but somehow made it back to camp without me. I was disappointed that the bear which was looking for a handout hadn’t taken the trail I did so I could have met him. Mother didn’t feel the same though!

Very enjoyable documentary, with a lot of familiar background airs and music, Irish?
My forever home! I grew up here and currently live here in the county

I was raised in western Oregon & while in college experienced Joseph, Wallowa Lake, & some of the surrounding landscape. It’s been awhile since I visited there, always staying in The Indian Lodge Motel which I believe is still the only one in town & although living abroad have for sometime contemplated retiring in this small & hopefully still, artistic community. Wallowa Lake is one of my favorite lakes anywhere & in Oregon only Crater Lake is, IMO, comparable. I am due for another visit & if I ever had a Lotto win…? Who knows? The combination of Wallowa Lake & the nearby mountains still really draws me there.

This was such an enjoyable video! You covered lots of topics, even the snow was a blessing not expected! Thanks so much! This is as close as I'll probably ever get to this area, even tho it's been on my mind! Who knows?

I lived in Elgin in the Late 60s just down the road from Wallowa.I loved that country.There are areas of old growth forests that are like giant cathedrals.I wnder how many small ranch's and farms the government has shut down so far.😮
Very nicely done video, kind of cozy and smooth, like the country and people who live there.

Welsome home, Clark. Nothing beats Oregon!
Found it the end of your great video
This reminds me of the happy time when we lived in Seattle WA 1958-1967.😢
This is not Seattle.
Yeah but it's basically the same beautiful part of the country besides Oregon is so close to Seattle that making that correction comes off as grumpy / funny...? PNW is a jewel for sure have a nice day all.
@@benlarson5073 I didn’t mean to come off as disrespecting Oregon. I loved living in the PNW.
Oh it’s a beautiful place indeed! Just don’t get out of your car for too long you can hear banjos playin and be weary of the old woman Lambrecht
Great video thank you 👍🏻

I like the beginning song but can't find it on Google search. Did you sing that yourself?
Donald,
I made the Wallowa video ten years ago in 2013. At the time I received great cooperation from the a consortium of Wallowa musical artists.They are seen in concert near the the beginning of the video. One of them was Henry Kinsley, who wrote and performed “God’s Country” and “Paradise.” He gave me permission to use both songs as did Heidi Mulller who sings “In Wallowa” for the credits.
At the time Henry was having serious issues with cancer… so it is not likely he has survived. Here is some info:

Have you seen an upsurge in viewers? I noticed your video has been up for about a year. How many viewers have you had in the past month? Do you think RUclips put a directive out for your program? My mom was watching this on her channel. Your video is very well done. Do you have a background in TV? What made you do this video? Have you been to wallowa before? What was your budget for this video? It was great to see all the B&Bs and attractions! The music in your video is great too!!! Did you have fun doing this? What is your name?
Checkered Reactions,
I cannot explain the upsurge. The show set quietly for a good year, then BOOM. It must be that RUclips placed it on some kind off list.
Thanks for the compliments. I am a retired director of live multi-camera TV music concerts. Only since retirement have I tried anything like Wallowa. I did it just for fun with my own camera.
I was born and raised in Portland, but at age 27 left to seek my fortune in the wilds of television and did not come back for 40 years. Wallowa was the only part for the state I had not seen. That’s why I chose it. I just showed up there one May weekend and began shooting. Great place!
My budget for this was 62.12 dollars for gas money to make two trips to Wallowa and back… that’s it! The B&Bs put me up for the publicity and a complimentary copy of the show. The local musicians pitched in with their recordings. See... doing television does not require any money.

@@santeevideo Thanks for your honest and authentic response Clark!!! My comment was partly in jest to your “form letter” responses. My mother really loved your video. I’m only curios now if many of those businesses and attractions are still operating post-pandemic. How many fill ups did that 62.12 get you???
@@santeevideo Is there any of your work (Live Music TV Concerts) on youtube? It would be great to see some of your past work!!
I am not completely up to speed on the details of accessing videos on RUclips, but I think all you have to do is enter Clark Santee or Clark Santee Video Productions and the sight should provide access to the shows I have posted. Most of them are early works because as a director the rights actually belong to someone else and I do not want to cross that line. However, I am not too worried about infringing on a shows that are 40 or 50 years old. Among the more interesting videos are four Music From the Show compilations. At age 26, The Show was my first attempt to direct live music. The site also contains videos from my travels, efforts that led to doing Wallowa. Check them out.
Where do you suppose the Rex T Barber bronze memorial plaque ever go? Just gone, missing, nothing to see or honor. But plenty of bronze for enlightened artists to make butterflies and woodpeckers.
Wheeler county is also like this. not one large franchise in the county!

@@santeevideo I'm glad you had a great time out in Wallowa. I think the uptick in viewers is because of the uptick in tourism in Oregon. As someone who lives near the john day fossil beds, I've noticed a lot more tourists of the past year or two. Thanks for supporting local music by the way!
edit: I watched it because it's so close to my home, Sometimes it's neat to see what outsiders think of it.
That's America is supposed to be
