Actually Halfway is pretty neat little town. Beautiful setting at the base of the Wallowa Mountains.....having grown up in eastern Oregon....you get to see some amazing country as opposed to the monotonous flat ground of the Willamette valley....but that’s just my take.

They went with more 5 wide looks. We rushed less people, got no pressure and they tore us up. Also, Halfway is a city in Oregon. Changed their name to Half.com for a short while as a publicity stunt. The more you know.... my college roommate (and still a good friend of mine) is from Halfway, Oregon. 8 man football! Gabe?

Halfway is a great town in a beautiful part of Hell’s Canyon. Surprised more people haven’t discovered it!

This thread has taken so many turns it may end up in Halfway ! I have been going there since the early 80's. Channel catfish heaven. Well it use to be...always stay at the Hitch'in post motel. Good people.Good food. Launch your boat at day break and slowly work your way down the Powder River arm to the main Snake River. You will see Bighorn sheep, Mule deer, and listen to the Chukars and Meadow Larks. One of the great places to see in this state.Then every once in awhile when you could hear a fish cough right above your head at appx 500 ft. will come the roar of a hot shot cowboy pilot in a screaming jet fighter out of Boise Id. and then as soon as he is there he is gone. He will be landing before your heart rate hits normal.....some of my wife's cuss words are still hanging in the air in parts of those canyons.......

Could be the Air National Guard out of Gowen Field (Boise), but more likely the big boys from Mountain Home AFB. And yes, they scream over low and loud!

Took snowmobiles from Halfway to the the ghost town of Cornucopia one winter when I was there. The Eagle Cap wilderness is a special place, I'm dying to go out and explore the area on off-road worthy motorcycles.

No, but it did spawn a memorable quote: "..you grab a fistful of throttle and your brain immediately falls out of your pocket."
