Cycling Oregon's McKenzie Pass 2016
For about a month (May-ish) in the Spring, the Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) opens the McKenzie Pass highway in Central Oregon to bicycles only. We rode the pass from the Sisters, OR side all the way over to Hwy 126 and then back to Sisters. We rode this at the beginning of May and we hit it perfectly as the temps were ideal and snow still abundant A few weeks later the snow was gone. A Bucket List ride for all cyclists! #mckenziepass #centraloregon #cycling #bicycling #belgiumbike #bioracer #roadslikethese

McKenzie Pass Oregon Dee Wright Observatory
US Forest: Willamette National Forest, Deschutes National Forest
Length: 82.0 miles / 132.0 km
Time to Allow: Two hours to drive the byway or five hours to stop at places along the way.
Experience dramatic views of the snowcapped High Cascade Peaks. The panorama of lava fields and six Cascade peaks is made more striking by the contrast between the black lava and white snow. The mountains are mirrored in crystal-clear lakes, and the byway passes beautiful waterfalls, including Sahalie and Koosah Falls. Dee Wright Observatory is located at the summit of McKenzie Pass on McKenzie Highway, State Route 242. The elevation of the observatory is 5,187 feet. The viewing windows inside the structure are referred to as lava tube viewing holes. Through these windows visitors can view and identify several of the Cascade Mountain peaks. A bronze peak finder is located at the top of the structure.
The Civilian Conservation Corps, Camp F-23 of Company 927, built the observatory from lava rock during the Great Depression. It is named after Dee Wright, the foreman in charge of the Camp.
Since its completion in 1935, the observatory has been a favorite attraction for thousands of visitors each summer. Interpretive panels, located on the paved trail to the observatory, tell the story of early travelers and area geology. A restroom and the trail to the structure are accessible for wheelchairs and, strollers. The Lava River Interpretive Trail is located next to the observatory, offering an unusual half-mile hike through young lava flows on a paved trail.

Santiam Wagon Trail Camp
Found a video I forgot to upload last month, but nonetheless here it is: a stroll down the Santiam Wagon Trail. Thought I was camped on some closed road, but turned out to be a really old road. Located at the north end of the McKenzie River Trail near Fish Lake and Clear Lake and Santiam Junction and Satiam Pass. The Santiam Wagon Road is a historic cattle road which goes from Sisters, Oregon to Albany, Oregon. This hike to House Rock is probably the most intact piece of the original wagon road, this segment will provide you with a true sense of early travel. The road parallels the South Santiam River and winds through lush old growth forests and crosses several tributaries along the way.
► Mountain Stream | McKenzie River | Willamette National Forest - Eugene, Oregon USA [3 hours]
A mountain stream is a brook or stream, usually with a steep gradient, flowing down a mountainside, its swift flow rate transporting large quantities of rock, gravel, soil, wood or even entire logs with it. The main characteristic of mountain streams in the Alpine region is their steep gradient and sharply varying rates of flow within a short period of time, as a result of snowmelt and sudden storms. Streams of such nature are rarer in gently rolling countryside, although they may occur on scarp slopes where, although the height difference is not so great, they tend to have a larger catchment area than mountain streams.
Mountain streams may be broadly divided into three sections. In the catchment funnel (Sammeltrichter) high on the mountainsides, water and eroded soil, rock and gravel are gathered. The stream then flows at high speed through a drainage channel (Abflussrinne) into the alluvial fan where the transported debris is deposited.

McKenzie River is a (90 mi; 145 km) tributary of the Willamette River in western Oregon in the United States. It drains part of the Cascade Range east of Eugene and flows westward into the southernmost end of the Willamette Valley. It is named for Donald McKenzie, a Scottish Canadian fur trader who explored parts of the Pacific Northwest for the Pacific Fur Company in the early 19th century. As of the 21st century, six large dams have been built on the McKenzie and its tributaries.
It originates as the outflow of Clear Lake in the high Cascades of eastern Linn County in the Willamette National Forest. (Clear Lake is fed by Ikenick Creek and Fish Lake Creek, the latter of which flows from Fish Lake. Fish Lake's main tributary is Hackleman Creek, which drains the north side of Browder Ridge east of Tombstone Pass. U.S. Route 20 crosses the pass and follows Hackleman Creek.) The McKenzie River flows south from Clear Lake, paralleled by Oregon Route 126, and goes over the Sahalie and Koosah waterfalls to Carmen Reservoir, a man-made lake from which the river is then diverted into a (2 mi; 3.2 km) tunnel to Smith Reservoir. Between Carmen Reservoir and Tamolitch Falls, the riverbed is dry for (3 mi; 4.8 km) because lava from Belknap Crater buried that stretch of the river about 1,600 years ago. The river flows under the lava for those three miles and re-surfaces at Tamolitch Pool at the base of Tamolitch Falls. It then flows south into Trail Bridge Reservoir, where the Smith River enters from the right. After passing through Trail Bridge Dam, the river enters Lane County. The McKenzie continues south to Belknap Springs, where it turns west and flows past the community of McKenzie Bridge. It receives the South Fork McKenzie River about three miles east of Blue River. (The South Fork rises near the Pacific Crest Trail in the Three Sisters Wilderness and flows north-northwest for about (30 mi; 48 km) through Cougar Reservoir and Cougar Dam).
After the South Fork confluence, the main stem of the McKenzie River continues west through a narrow valley in the mountains, receiving the Blue River from the north at the community of Blue River. The McKenzie then passes Vida and continues to Leaburg and Walterville. The McKenzie valley widens as the river continues west, receiving the Mohawk River from the northeast just north of Springfield. Emerging from the Cascade foothills, the McKenzie enters a broad floodplain. It joins the Willamette River from the east (5 mi; 8 km) north of Eugene.
