Day 34: Oregon is Beautiful

July 29, 2021

Vanlog, Government Camp, OR

Woke up before sunrise with 47 degrees. Sunrise at 5:56 AM at Crater Lake. So worth it! 


Drove to Newberry National Volcanic Monumenr south of Bend, OR and hiked to Paulina Falls and the Big Obsidian Flow. Had our first shower in four days at a public shower at the East Lake Resort.



Then continued north still in the Bend OR area to Tumalo Falls and a 2.3 mi RT hike to Double Falls.



As the afternoon warmed up to 96 degrees we explored the amazing Smith Rock State Park which is like a mini Zion NP with steep canyon walls and a river down below. 




Then we drove two hours to our boondocking site near Trillium Lake in the Mt Hood National Forest.
