Rufus, Oregon
Rufus (www.cityofrufus.net) is
nestled between Interstate 84 and basalt cliffs of the beautiful Columbia
River Gorge, 100 miles east of Portland and 100 miles west of Pendleton.
Primarily a residential community, the population is about 270. Small commercial
businesses cater to local residents and interstate highway travelers.
The nearby Columbia, John Day and Deschutes Rivers offer recreational opportunities --- camping, fishing, windsurfing, parasailing, rafting and boating. The John Day Dam and Giles French Park are on the Columbia River at Rufus, and LePage Park at the mouth of the John Day River is on I-84 to the east. Rufus is 1 ½ hours from Mt. Hood in Oregon and 1 ½ hours from Mt. Adams in Washington. The town was named for the original white settler there, Rufus C. Wallis.
