Central Oregon Trip Part 1 (Newberry Volcano)
My buddy Doug asked me if I wanted to hang out at his place in Bend for the Labor day since his wife would be out of town. This made me a little nervous that he was gonna try sumthin' LOL. So it was going to be adventure by day... Casa Doug by night. It sounded good to me especially if you toss in a prime rib sandwich from Bronco Billy's in Sisters Oregon!
The first day we headed to the Newberry volcano & Paulina peak. It was pretty cold and windy up there at 8,000 feet, but a great view. Then we went down to the trail through the obsidian flow. Later we walked around one of the lakes looking for some hot springs. Then to Paulina falls. It was increadable, but take a look for yourself! BTW Those Hard Mountain Wear quick dry shirts, like the one I wearing, are great!

Wow, this is the type of trip I'm in need of. When I think of Oregon I always think of the thick evergreen forest and the moist coastal regions. This shows the high and dry elevations with spectacular views. That obsidian sure looked tempting.
