Come with us on a journey through time as we spend four days exploring geologic, historic and scenic areas of central Oregon. Enjoy lovely scenery as we travel to John Day via highways 126 and 26, there will be rest stops along the way, please bring a sack lunch. We will spend two nights at the Best Western Inn at John Day. Day trips will take us to the Painted Hills, Sheep Rock and Clarno units of the John Day Fossil Beds National Monument. We will travel through Picture Gorge, ghost towns of Richmond and Shaniko, visit Mascall Overlook and the Oregon Paleo Institute in Fossil. In John Day we visit the Kam Wah Chung State Heritage Site. Then it’s off to Prairie City to visit the DeWitt Museum and Prairie City Depot. We will check out the Oxbow Restaurant and Saloon in Prairie City to view the historic mahogany and rosewood bar with its “Twin Virgins” carved in Milan, Italy, about 1879. Leaving this area we head south on Highway 97 to Bend for a night at the Riverhouse Hotel. A late start on day four will allow time to enjoy a leisurely hot breakfast and the river walk near the hotel. Before heading home we will visit the Paulina Lake and Obsidian Flow area, as well as the High Desert Museum. Cost includes three breakfasts, one lunch and one dinner. A detailed day by day schedule will be available on Rally Day, Sunday, February 26th.
