From Beeville, take US 59 to Oregon (MO).  Taken on I-29.  July 22, 2015.



My intent with the "jump to" rule is that you can jump to any kind of place with the same name.  So in addition to other cities or towns named Oregon, someone could jump to the state of Oregon and play any place you can get to by a single route from the state of Oregon.

That's an awesome pic!

Thank you. I took that 12 years ago from the Motel 6 parking lot. I stayed there again a few days later and saw this commotion taking place outside my window.

Bear Mountain isn't a city per se, but it seems to come up as it's own district in Google Maps.
