Oregon Desert Trail Presentation

Do you need inspiration for that next backpacking trip? Join the Oregon Natural Desert Association for an introduction to one of the newest long distance trails in the country: the Oregon Desert Trail. This 750 mile route traverses some stunning natural features in the high desert like the Hart Mountain National Antelope Refuge, Steens Mountain, and the Owyhee Canyonlands. The free presentation will be at the Grants Pass Library at 4:30pm on March 23. Entrance to the meeting room is from the rear of the library. Trail Coordinator Renee Patrick will cover the basics of hitting the trail and share some new resources that will help in planning your next adventure in the high desert. Drawing on her 10,000 backpacking miles and recent triple crown accomplishment (completing the AT, PCT & CDT), Renee is applying all her knowledge and passion for trails to this new route; and don?t miss a chance to win some raffle goodies provided by CLIF Bar, Oboz Footwear, Backpackers Pantry, Green Goo, and Hikertrash.
