Description:
This is an exploratory hike through an area that is proposed for monument status in central Oregon. The hike is over 4 hours drive from Eugene in Wheeler County and participants should plan to spend at least a night in the area. A second hike, Pat's Cabin (nearby), will be offered the following day. (Note- the Pat’s Cabin hike is a separate signup.)
There are hotel options locally and camping is possible. The hike is mainly on an abandoned roadway and shadeless. Bring sun protection. Water is not available except what you carry. This hike is known for wildflowers in spring and notably the hedgehog cactus. Nearby are short hike opportunities in the Painted Hills and Fossil Beds of the John Day Canyon. Hiker's may choose to explore on their own.
All food and lodging are the participant's responsibility.
Carpool stats Eugene to Mitchell 192 miles each way.
