Trip Report

Smoke prevented us from seeing the moonrise. As we drove out of the park, the Lane County Parks staff were putting up the barriers to close the road for the next two days because of fire danger. As we drove past LCC, we had our first glimpse of the fiery bright moon! Thanks to assistant leader, Bob.
