You do get moon dust on Alvord...and lots of regular dust out on the Central Oregon desert stretches...BUT you also get some amazing views...totally worth it!

So I "Overland" via motorcycle. This looks like a great adventure bike trip. Is there anywhere I can find a .gpx file of the route? Also, how early in the year do you suppose this can be done? I live in S.E. Idaho so I know about the high desert country and how it can be tricky too early or too late in the year.

@Venture2Roam

Жыл бұрын

I don’t post GPX files, but you can DM on IG and I’ll point you in the right direction. It all depends on precip. I think you could do this as early as April depending on snow pack…but there are multiple ways around Steens…so this could even potentially be a winter trip if it was a dry winter.

I do not blame many of the private ranchers for closing off access across their lands. So many people abuse the areas and do not pay to repair the damage. It is frustrating to drive for miles only to come across a short section of private land and see a gate and sign "Private No Trespassing" . All users need to respect private property and also our public lands. Over use and abusive will result in reduced access to these lands. Think! leave no trace, i.e. no tracks across fields and meadows, do not built multiple fire pits ( we not have portable fire pits). Take home ALL of your trash and any others trash you may find.
