Nature
Wagontire Mountain is a 6,440-foot summit in Oregon and ranks as the state's 435th highest peak. Its name is tied to a local historical claim that early pioneers saw an old covered wagon tire nearby, giving the mountain a lasting connection to the region's pioneer past. That association extended beyond the summit itself when the unincorporated community of Wagontire took its name from the mountain, linking the landscape and settlement to the same local origin story.
