Backroads of Oregon - Day 6


On Thursday, September 2nd, my son, Christopher, daughter, Catherine and I traveled from Hines/Burns to Frenchglen, Fields, Adel and Lakeview. We had breakfast at Apple Peddler #7. Once again the food was good but the service was terrible! We stopped at the Safeway in Burns to purchase sandwiches, BBQ chips, and Devils Food Cookies. We ate the picnic lunch at the grounds of the historic Frenchglen Hotel. We had ice cream at The Narrows in Princeton located 26 miles south of Burns on Highway 205 at 6:59 PM. We stayed the night in Room 138 at the Budget Inn on 411 North F Street.

The highlights of the day were a visit to the Wild Horses just west of Hines; a stop in Frenchglen for a picnic lunch; and crossing into Idaho and Nevada briefly. Christopher found part of a dead rattlesnake at Denio Junction. We found 7 caches and 1 benchmark.
