"KINDLE Day Hiking Bend & Central Oregon: Mount Jefferson/ Sisters/ Cascade Lakes
FROM THE INTRODUCTION Once dependent on timber for its livelihood, Central Oregon is now a mecca for outdoor enthusiasts and adventurers. From the grasslands around the steep Crooked River Gorge, to pristine alpine lakes and jagged peaks, this is a uniquely diverse area. This book covers a lot of ground and a unique set of landscapes. You'll find everything from casual urban strolls to arduous climbs up some of the Cascades' highest peaks. You'll find hikes for kids, hikes for dogs, and hikes for those needing barrier-free (paved or ADA-accessible) trails. Several hikes incorporate various historical sites, including old fire lookouts, wagon roads, Native American pictographs, and other landmarks with intriguing histories. I truly believe that Central Oregon is one of the most beautiful places in the world. No matter what kind of adventure you're looking for here, you can find it in this book. They say that those who visit Central Oregon move to Central Oregon. You've been warned.
