Jen went backpacking May 5 to May 7, 2022 17.5 miles 3,250 feet gained 2 nights
Had a trip to SE Oregon with several stops. I had a volunteer project with ONDA monitoring cattle impacts on BLM land near Juntura. Struggled with the weather, high winds, hail, rain, wet tent and stayed in hotel for two of the 4 nights. I went down to Chalk Basin, which is just magnificent. Stopped on my way home to hike Nine Mile Ridge east of Pendleton( snowshowers and flowers!).
