Fall in the Ochocos, 2016

A stormy weekend came to Oregon.  It didn’t keep us home.  The Ochocos had some fall colors we needed to see, so that is what we did.  Here are the photos…

Deschutes River, Fall, 2016

Wow, is fall flying by!  Wasn’t it just September?  Now the end of October is closer than the start.  I guess there’s just a bit of catching up to do here.  Fall means a lot of things, among them is steelhead season and getting on the big D to see what can be dredged up in that department.  The first float on the Deschutes actually began in September and then there it was, October by the end of the trip.  The second trip was only 4 days later.  A little bit of a whirlwind, but was it ever nice to be on the river.  And of course it’s always nice to get out and see some fall sunsets as storms threaten that usually don’t produce a whole lot.
