For those of you who don't mind no services, crummy roads, primative camping, & etc., think about giving the Steens in southeastern Oregon a try.

Some views of our campground at the foot of the Steens. As you can see, it's high desert country.





The Steens range is the tallest fault-block Mountain range in the continental U.S. It rises a little over 1 mile from the desert floor. The highest point is 9,700 feet.



Kiger Gap on the west side of Steens. Not the Grand Canyon, but impressive nonetheless.



Near the summit. The X did a great job getting us around.

The view straight down the summit.



The view of the Alvord Desert below.



View of one of the many gorges.



Wildhorse Lake on the north side.



Random pretty flower.

That's some good stuff!

Some of the better wildlife shots from the trip. As you can see, we had an avid birder with us.

Some more desert scenery from the trip.






The Chewaucan River near Paisley, OR. I caught some nice native Redband Trout.

The last campground we stayed in was near Crater Lake.



The happy campers.
