Our sixth trip of 2014 was based at Rock Horse Park near Fort Rock, Oregon. Distances are relative in Eastern Oregon. The camp was only 62 miles from Bend which was a short trip. We choose a hook up, water and electricity, Oh, yes WiFi. After setting up we jumped into Suzuki and off on an adventure seeking new areas to visit in Eastern Oregon. Saturday's drive was to Cabin Lake area. Cabin Lake was a USFS ranger station for the Fort Rock District from 1922 to 1940's. The compound is fenced and gated off and old campground was nearly gone. A few old picnic tables and stone fire pits. We say one large group in tents and another solitary tent in the area.
This is an old pump building, not much left but interesting, found a geocache a few hundred feet away. nice flat camping spot near by. It is located on the edge of pine and sagebrush vegetation types.
Very small wild daises located in sage brush desert area. so many interesting plants if you look carefully at the right time of the year.
Oregon Sunshine. easy to see when you look in the correct places.
Bobbe at a new geocache out in the desert. nice walk about .16 mile from road, not much wild life in the area, we did see a few cows and calves but not like the Ochoco Mts.
I can not rember where I took this photo but an iteresting rock. Looks like it was one large rock that fractured into several smaller rocks. So much to see in Central & Eastern Oregon with in a few hours of our home in Bend, Oregon.
More wild flowers in bloom this week
Lots of paint brush near hole in the ground. In some areas it was every were .
Every time we stop, and other times Bobbe grabs her book and reads. It is one of her addictions.
