Massacre Rocks State Park
State Park Information
State Park Overview
Oregon Trail emigrants referred to the Massacre Rocks area as "Gate of Death" and "Devils Gate", but modern day travelers use terms like beautiful, serene and
restful to describe the park. the park is rich in Oregon Trail, geological and
natural histories.
Rich in history, pioneers used this area, specifically what is now referred to as ? Register Rock? as a rest stop for years. Today we invite horse owners to water and rest their animals in the corral at Register Rock. Many emigrant names are inscribed on the large rock, which is now protected by a weather shelter. A scenic picnic area surrounds the rock, creating a desert oasis for the modern traveler. The site also includes a horse rest area for highway travelers.
Oregon Trail remnants are most easily seen from highway rest areas in either end of the park. For additional information on the Oregon Trail visit the Three Island Crossing State Park page and the Oregon/California Trail Center website.
