New Pine Creek, Oregon

New Pine Creek is a census-designated place and unincorporated community in Lake County, Oregon, United States.

New Pine Creek is the southernmost settlement in the state of Oregon, accepted as part of the state despite being south of the 42nd parallel boundary line nominally separating Oregon from California.

However, a surveying error in 1868 caused part of New Pine Creek to be placed in Oregon.

[9] Delegations from California and Oregon held talks on the issue in 1984 after the error was discovered,[10] but did not ultimately change New Pine Creek's status.

This region experiences warm (but not hot) and dry summers, with no average monthly temperatures above 71.6 °F (22.0 °C).
