As I sit here looking out at the snow and wind I thought I would share some pictures and information from a weekend SUL trip in August to the Eagle Cap Wilderness in eastern Oregon.
The Eagle Cap is a beautiful mixture of snow and ice, lakes, wildflowers and fine trails. This was a solo loop trip of about 25 miles.
