I was pleasantly surprised to find these pictures from Flikr's Neighbor Dave of eastern Oregon, near Pendleton, where I grew up. God's country! One of the posters desribed it as epic country...I like that too. I always find in novels set in the West that the horizon figures prominently....characters are always looking at it...almost as if it's another character.
This is the reason why.

While reading your post, your comment "landscape as character" caused me to get chills--oh, you did it. Brought up memories of reading Wallace Stegner's classic best of the best novel ANGLE OF REPOSE without even mentioning his name or the title.
