Overview

Oregon boasts many natural wonders. Sea Lion Cave is considered the largest sea cave in the world, and the state has the deepest lake in the country, Crater Lake. Likewise, the 8,000-foot deep Hells Canyon is the deepest river gorge in North America. And if you go to Bend, you’ll find Pilot Butte, a cinder cone volcano, sitting within the city limits. For outdoors enthusiasts, the state has a great deal to offer. For psychologists and those looking to train in the field, Oregon is equally rewarding.
