Description:

Wed May 27: Depart at 7 from McDonald's, Bob Straub and Main, Springfield, and drive to SRSP with 1 midway break stop. Since the park has such a reputation for crowds, set-up camp immediately, then hike the Canyon Trail 3.3mi at relaxed pace, (supposed to have outstanding views of the canyon) with lunch on the trail. A swim in the Crooked River might be an option for some folks late afternoon and/or more exploring in the canyon. Camp for the pm, and start early hike on Thur at 8am on the Burma Rd Loop Trail 7mi (more outstanding views on this one, too). Then back to Eugene, with stop for lunch in Sisters. A contingency plan if no campsites available would be to do the Burma Trail and then drive back same day, with stop at Takodas in Blue River for dinner. This will be the first visit to SRSP for the leader.
