We stopped along the road to take this picture. You just make out some of the Oregon Cascade peaks over the top of the junipers.

Hello Byron and Ann
Was so great to see you here on the forum. I too, was over at Wickiup and South Twin this past week. Dusty, Dusty, Dusty...is the only word I have to describe it. And the Forestry Dept. was suppose to be working in all 3 parks this last week,and we never seen one person. There was no running water, just out-houses. They were suppose to be working, but we never seen anyone around the whole week in any of the parks. I will never take my little trailer over to that area again. Although, I did miss out on the heat they had in the valley. It's going to take me two weeks to clean it up and get it ready to go to Bullards...and that I'm looking forward to. However, U of O Pine Mt. Observitory sounds nice. Where is it from Bend? I'm afraid in any part of Eastern Oregon, all we're going to find for camping grounds is Forestry Dept...and after this last week, that was a major big disapointment. It felt so good to cross back WEST over the sumit and feel moist air.
Any way, wish I could have seen ann before Bandon & Bullards, but wasn't met to be.
So, will see you in a couple weeks. I'm in 47A, arriving 7/12 and leaving 7/17. Lets make sure we see each other at the beach. I need more instruction on geocashing.
Take care, and nice to see you on line. Chari
