SUMMARY:Steens Mountain
DESCRIPTION:Steens Mt. is located in southeast Oregon.  It is a 39 mile fault block mountain.  Its highest point is over 9\,000 feet and has 4 large glaciated canyons\, Kiger\, Wildhorse\, Little Blitzen and Big Indian.  We will be camping at the south loop campground.  This allows us to  hike both BLitzen and Big Indiana without driving.  One day will be driving to the top of the mountain and visiting Riddle Ranch.  Riddle Ranch is owned by the BLM and has a person present through the end of September to explain its history.  We should also be able to see the wild horses that are kept in the area. The 2 routes we could take over to the Steens will be discussed at the pretrip meeting on Friday the 4th at 6:00pm—the place not yet decided.  I will call everyone by 9/2/20.  Please remember to bring face coverings to the meeting.  All Obsidian COVID policies apply to trip.  The CG has water and good vault toilets.  I have hiked both Biltzen and Big Indian.  Car pooling\, is up to participants.  If you are willing to take a person when you sign up indicate that.  If you do not want to take a passenger\, please put 0 in the will take column.  No sharing of food.  All meals and snacks will be provided by each participant.  I will have a means to heat water.  I will not attempt to list all details of trip except to say there will be 1 creek crossing to get into Blitzen and 3 for Big Indian.  In September the water will be low and we maybe able to do rock crossings.    ERROR  IN DATE\, 9/10 to 9/15.\n Meetup/Departure Location: TBA
