SUMMARY:Tumalo & Cottonwood Canyon
DESCRIPTION:Friday: April 29\, 2022\nDrive to Tumalo State Park four miles north of Bend\, arriving by 12pm where we will meet in the day-use area parking lot. We will hike 1.5 miles south along the Deschutes River Trail to the Riley Ranch Nature Reserve where there is an additional 1.5 miles of trails. In the late afternoon\, we return to the park and stay in Group Camp B near the Deschutes River (check in is at 4pm). The evening is open for hanging out\, or to go on a 2 mile hike north along the river. There are Flush toilets and hot showers in the park. Plan on 5 miles of hiking. \nSaturday: April 30\, 2022\nIn the morning\, depart by 9am and drive 2.5 hours to Cottonwood Canyon State Park on the John Day River\, making a brief stop at the Redmond Caves (lave tubes) and later the ghost-ish town of Shaniko. We should arrive at about 1pm at the park\, no later that 2pm. We will have time to explore\, the 3-mile round trip Hard Stone Tail might be a good option for a hike. At 4pm we can check into the End of the Road Group Camp. There is a new moon tonight\, so star gazing should be great! Plan on up to 5 miles of hiking. Cottonwood Canyon is remote\, rugged\, and deliberately undeveloped\, there is no cellphone service. Potable water is available in the camping area\, but you will have a walk of about 15 minutes to fill up. We will have access to a vault toilet in the group camp\, though flush restrooms and shower facilities are available in the cabin area. \nSunday: May 1\, 2022\nHike the Pinnacles trail\, a round trip of 9.5 to 10 miles along the John Day River\, maybe more if we go off trail a bit. We return to the Group Camp for our final night. If conditions allow\, we go on a night hike down by the river. More stargazing. \nMonday: May 2\, 2022\nin the morning\, depart on your schedule. If we caravan back to Eugene\, possibly stop in Sisters for coffee and Clear Lake for a short hike. \nPay the trip leader $30 upon arrival; this covers 3 nights of camping fees\, and wood for a fire (if allowed at that time). Bring your Oregon State Park Pass. Bring your tent and all camping items. Bring all your meals and be prepared for the weather. Average highs for that time are 70 degrees and lows in the upper 30s. The trip leader is fully vaccinated and boosted.

SUMMARY:E2C north Winberry Divide
DESCRIPTION:Note: BE AWARE OF MARATHON ROAD CLOSURES:  https://www.eugenemarathon.com/road-closures-parking-and-transportation\nThis is a trail that was recovered due to the efforts of Sig Johnsen and the Scorpions. While the recovery is not complete\, it may be hiked from FS 150 in four parts: a mile through varying woodland up to the road; cross the road and go another several tenths of a mile in denser woods meeting the road again\, and climbing 1.2 miles again to the Winberry Divide trail\, where we will go left at the junction another 0.7 miles over and down to FS 5823. We will turn around. FS5823 goes 5 miles back down to the North Shore road of the Lookout Point reservoir and the trail may be accessed from that side. On the way back\, we will go briefly past the junction with  the trail we came up to another road\, more overgrown\, which connects with the other trails-road-trails that leads back 4 miles to the North Shore road\, 3 miles west of 5823. That is a beautiful trail in spring time with a couple of lovely small streams and does not have many visitors. \nThis is a nice woods\, but the views are sparse with occasional ravines and views of the Cascade foothills. It might give those who hike this an idea of what trail work entails. This was power brushed in hot summer sun and the mud dug out on a cold snowy winter day. There are bypasses that need to be made\, a rootball that needs to be worked\, and steps that were built in 2007 that fell into disrepair. On the way back we will walk the road back to the bottom\, which has its own story.

SUMMARY:Pisgah Checkered Lily
DESCRIPTION:Update:  Check the Eugene Marathon route so that you can take detours where needed such as 30th.  https://www.eugenemarathon.com/road-closures-parking-and-transportation      Out at Pisgah look for us my car a row or two down from the fee box. We will take Trail 17\,7\, 4 to the main trail up the summit.  Near the summit\, we will see the hard to find checkered lily in bloom.   At the summit\, people can head back down  to the parking lot or opt for a longer  hike down Trail 2 to take a short cut to Trail 4. There is a checkered lily on Trail 4 if one is lucky to find it.  I heard that checkered lilies are also in bloom at Iris Ridge and Skinners Butte.   Email me at jbjacobsen@comcast.net if you have questions. If you don’t have a Lane County pass allow time to purchase one with Debit/Credit card (no cash) at the pay station by trailhead.
