The Snake River defines nearly all of its northern border. Agriculture, mostly wheat production, is the mainstay of the county's economy. The campgrounds and hiking trails in Umatilla National Forest entice visitors to spend a rural weekend away from it all. Lower Granite Dam is another popular spot to enjoy fishing, picnicking, and water-sports. US Route 12 is the major east-west corridor in the county and it passes through the city of Pomeroy.
