Intermediate Ski in Big Pine Country
We will drive over on Monday hoping to arrive in time for an evening ski before dinner. Two lovely areas to ski are the Walton Lake and Bandit Springs Forest Service trails. These areas have been maintained and marked with blue diamonds by ONC members in Oct. 2018 and June 2019.
We will be staying in an artfully constructed 1,145 square foot 3-bedroom 1.5 bath 2-story former ranger house, with a wonderful dining room table that accommodates our entire group, as well as large knotty-pine paneled living room with comfortable seating for evening reading and chats.
If snow is lacking, we will do some hikes in the local area and over at the Painted Hills in the John Day Fossil beds. There are always fun things do in that part of the State. Participants are responsible for their own breakfasts and lunches. Dinners will be potluck.
Available Beds: Two rooms with queen beds and one room with 3 single beds. Living room will not be available for alternate sleeping arrangements. Alternate sleeping arrangements (e.g., cot or sleeping pads) are possible in double bed rooms.
Trip limit: 5-7 participants including trip leader.
Cost: $75/member, per person. Includes 3 nights lodging.
Carpool miles: 340 miles roundtrip from Portland plus excursions to trailheads.
