This small interpretive site commemorates one of the areas used during the 1968 filming of the movie "Paint Your Wagon" . The photogenic area was chosen for the mixture of open pine forests and meadows that give way to the rugged Wallowa Mountains in the Eagle Cap Wilderness in the background. Scenes of the movie were shot here along East Eagle Creek as part of the "No Name City' scenes, in Forshey Meadows in the southern Wallowa Mountains, and up at Anthony Lakes (site of the Starbottle Saloon).
In 2018 Baker City and other local communities celebrated the 50th anniversary of the film.
