Landowner David Hampton planted larch pines in a Douglas fir forest in Oregon in the shape of a giant, 300 feet smiley face ο»ΏπŸ™‚ο»Ώ

Every autumn, the larch pines turn orange, and the smiley face stands out.

Do we know where in Oregon this is? I would love to create a time-lapse of the face fading in and out of the course of a year.

This giant smiley face of trees greets drivers in Polk County every fall

The smiley face, located near Willamina, was designed and planted in 2011 using Douglas fir and larch trees.
