Exploregonians: Travel Misadventures

41. The Oregon Vortex

Jordan and Katie Wolfe Season 2 Episode 18

There is a famous anomaly in Southern Oregon that Katie and Jordan finally physically find themselves in this week. 

The Oregon Vortex has confused, frustrated, and mystified people for nearly a century. People appear way shorter or taller than they usually do! Things roll uphill! A broom can stand by itself! By. Itself. This mysterious sphere of a vortex has even inspired a Disney animated series.

Katie and Jordan discuss what it was like to visit the legendary place in Oregon that is equal parts science experiment and roadside attraction.
