Rob and Erin took us down Deschuttes river trail, past 2 waterfalls. Extreme scenery. Meadows, hills, a ton of white water, dirt trail entire way. 50 degrees and Sunny.

Bike: Took about 1 hour to make egg-beater omelets and whole grain english muffins. Copius honey.
Biked out toward Cascade Lakes Hwy. warmed to low 60's. Ran into snow about 4800 ft. Biked through for about a mile, then became impassible. Turned around, and back to Sunriver. Then out toward LaPine, then took river road out to cascade hwy, lower elevation, + snow but not on road. Great ride. Strong winds from the mountains on the way out way, easy spin 22 mph on way back. ave 16.7 for ride. Predominate Zone 1.
