Trip Report

We left Eugene around 7AM for a one-day trip into Sunshine Meadow in the Obsidian Area off of McKenzie Pass. Around 9AM we had all our tools loaded up and were headed up the trail, reaching sunshine meadow around 11:30. After checking out previous check dams that were placed we took a quick lunch before getting right to work. We were able to install 30 check dams in the upper area of sunshine meadow before heading back down at 3:45. We estimated that we would only need around another day or so to finish the entire project at sunshine!
