More modifications to my packraft! It's good to have a partner who designs and makes gear 😍 We have a new inflatable seat, an adjustable backband, thigh straps, a bow bag and a bunch of tie downs. 🌊🌊🌊 let's go! Coming up next...turning it into a self bailer!
Starting easy with some dehydrated fruit. Stoked to get fancy on the trail with some of Julie's recipes. Anyone out there tried some yet?
Climate Strike today. Who's going? 🖐 Bend, meet 4pm on the corner of Newport & Wall st.

More hikers on the "trail"! 😍
Thanks to another hard working bunch of ONDA volunteers, the Nye Trail in the Steens Mountain Wilderness (an ODT alternate) is cleaned up and in great shape! Warning: its STEEP but offers incredible views on the way up to the Cold Springs Road
Hiker on the trail! Drop n Roll is cruising along.... happy trails!👣👣👣
Arno's trip reports from his ODT spring hike keep coming... It was a really lush spring on the ODT 👣👣👣
We are selling our Oregon Desert Trail hats online this week only! Get yours by heading to www.onda.org/donate $30 will cover hat and shipping and make sure to include "ODT hat" in the comment section. Please place your orders by Friday at noon, shipping Friday afternoon.
Volunteer with us! Our last 2 trail work trips of the year on the ODT have a few openings... Sept 9-13 come work with us in Steens Mountain, Sept 27-29 come work with us in the Fremont Forest. Find all details at www.onda.org/trips and register today
Mmm, don't forget to hydrate with some Steens Mountain Brewing beer when you are in Harney County! We found this one at Fields Station 🍻
We had a great time at PCT Days this weekend! We met hikers getting ready to hit the trail this fall and plenty who want to make it happen in the future. And a big Thanks to Tim with Friends of the Owyhee who came out to spread the good word on all they are doing in the Owyhee Canyonlands 👐
Hiking a route tip: There are numerous places along the ODT where hikers will encounter cattle or horse trails on cross country sections. To consolidate impacts, please use these existing "trails." However, when no wildlife trails are present on cross country sections, spread out to prevent creating any additional impacts. Just be careful! The cows may not always be heading the way you want to go!
