Description
Interstate 84 westbound through Ladd Canyon 10 miles east of La Grande, Oregon. Back in the day traveling in wagon trains, Ladd Canyon was not known by that name until 1862 when Mr. and Mrs. John Ladd, pioneer emigrants from Illinois, established an inn at the foot of the hill and gave their name to the canyon. Good substantial meals were served by these early day restaurateurs at a dollar each. Generally they stopped in the vicinity of La Grande as a camping and resting place before beginning the difficult climb west over the Blue Mountains.
