About Abert Rim


Abert Rim in Lake County, Oregon is one of the highest fault scarps in the United States. It rises 2,490 feet above the valley floor, finishing with a 820-foot sheer-sided basalt cap. It was formed during the Miocene epoch. At that time basaltic flood lavas covered much of eastern Oregon.
