Participants
Expedition
Waking up in Prineville (see 2019-03-22 44 -120), I drove south on Oregon 27 (scenic but twisty) to US 20 (straight but not very scenic), stopping at Brothers at a cafe out of a Western movie for coffee, before continuing east to the intersection with US 385. Ten miles south of there, I pulled off on a side road and went for a run, two and a half miles out and back. I didn't see a moving thing until I got back to the car.
I resumed driving through intermittent heavy rain, to the Christmas Valley highway, which I followed about 12 miles in to the point where the hashpoint road branches off. Again, I parked the car and went in by foot. The rain held off, it was a pleasant walk, and I got to see what a sagebrush plain looks like in late winter.
I got back out (obviously), drove back to US 385, and continued one degree of latitude south to 2019-03-23 42 -120.
