There are two sides to everything. And wine in between.

The folds of the earth

I found the one fire poking stick to rule them all. Go big or go home.

Because it's there. 😍

A rare bit of sun shines on the North Umpqua River during November. Be prepared for a cold paddle 😨🤪. #worthit #lowflow #riversaretrailstoo #packraft #adventureswithpackraft #brrrr

Great. Now I really want to hike the AT again. Thanks Mr. Fabulous! J/k, I've been wanting to hike it again eventually, it's been 17 years since my thru-hike. The itch gets worse when I read or think about it...😫

Yes yes yes! **An exciting moment in the halls of Congress this afternoon! ** @ronwyden introduced legislation, co-sponsored by @senjeffmerkley, to protect the wonderfully wild public lands in Malheur County and scores of iconic places in Oregon’s Owyhee Canyonlands. A long journey lies ahead, but today marks a huge leap forward for more than one million acres of your public lands! Take the next step with us: thank your Senators today! link in bio

@OregonDesertTrail

Thanks to REI in Bend and Deschutes Brewery for hosting our "Boots, Bikes, and Boats in Eastern Oregon" presentation this week. We shared 27 different options to #optoutside for your next adventure in the high desert, including here at Morgan Butte...a great place to hike, bike or horseback ride in the Fremont-Winema National Forest, just over 2 hours from Bend. See you #ONDAtrail!

Watch out! Great photos ahead...@extreme_oregon is hiking the ODT and sharing some of his beautiful pics 😍

As seen in South Africa! Thanks to all you hikers spreading the word on one of the hardest and most rewarding long-distance hiking routes out there. 🙌

There is not always trail along the Oregon Desert Trail, but do you need it in every landscape? We don't think so.

Time to get your ODT shirt or hoodie game going! We have four different designs over at Bonfire...lots of color choices and short sleeve, long sleeve & hoodies. They will ship in time for (that holiday that comes after Thanksgiving) in early December 😁 link in the bio ☝️

We're having beautiful fall weather in the high desert! Anyone getting out along the ODT?

Desert hiking tip #67: tall gaiters will save your legs when hiking through the sagebrush sea...and will slow down those rattle snakes too

It's not all sagebrush along the ODT...near Christmas Valley mammoths used to wander, and some of their tracks are still visible from 43,000 years ago! 🤯
