Gravel Tires - For 26" Wheels?

Guys I did it... I walked in to my local Goodwill yesterday and dropped $25 on a crappy Diamondback MTB, with the intention of building in in to a gravel/singletrack/end-of-the-world bike. I'm thinking it will be on dirt/gravel 70% of the time. It's actually kind of a cool frame--I'll post a picture when I get home tomorrow. Tange tubing... can't remember what grade. All the braze ons for racks, fenders, etc. Shimano Deore group. Canti brakes. Wheels are unknown, I'll look at them a little closer tomorrow... but they're 26". Which brings me to the reason I'm posting this thread--are there any fast rolling 26" gravel-esque tires out there? I googled it it and found a few, but I'd really like to hear from the paceline brain trust on this one, because my experience in the MTB world is very low.
