Route description

The western terminus of John Day Highway is at an intersection with Interstate 84, 1 mile (1.6 km) north of Arlington. It follows OR 19 southward for about 76 miles (122 km), through the cities of Condon and Fossil, where it meets with OR 207 at Service Creek. Here John Day Highway turns eastward and follows OR 207 for 16 miles (26 km) to Spray. At Spray, John Day Highway splits from OR 207 and goes southward. It passes the community of Kimberly, through the John Day Fossil Beds National Monument, and meets up with U.S. 26. The highway then follows US 26 eastward, through the communities of Dayville, Mount Vernon, Prairie City, Unity, Ironside, and Jamieson. The eastern terminus of John Day Highway is at Vale.[1]

John Day Highway from Fossil to Austin Junction is also a part of the Journey Through Time Scenic Byway,[2] an Oregon state byway.

gollark: There really is a Nobody, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Nobody is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Nobody is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Nobody added, or GNU/Nobody. All the so-called "Nobody" distributions are really distributions of GNU/Nobody.
gollark: Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called "Nobody", and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.
gollark: I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Nobody, is in fact, GNU/Nobody, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Nobody. Nobody is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.
gollark: SCP. Three. One. Two. Five.
gollark: Again, it was *SCP-3125*, Nobody.
