Hey all!
New to OB and just curious if anyone is in my area. Feel free to drop a line or PM.

 

[Brandon Harvey]

I am in the Valley, Sweet Home Area. Where in the Valley are you located?

 

[W3st_b0und]

Oh nice! I'm in Corvallis.

And it looks like our membership started within days of each other. I see you are member #7372; mine is #7371. Do you mostly do stuff on the coastal range or in the Cascades? My son and I are planning a trip after Soccer season. Thinking of going over to the Alvord Desert.

 

[W3st_b0und]

So I actually just moved here back in February. But I did do route 6 of the backcountry discovery routes a few weeks ago before the fires got too crazy. It's 234 miles just south of roseburg from crescent lake to coos bay.

But keep me in the loop! I'll definitely tag along schedule permitting.

I already have them actually. I just completed Route 6 south of you about a month or so ago.

On your way over to the Alvord don't forget a stop by Christmas Valley sand dunes. FUN!

Oh very nice! I fly fish myself though I've only been able to go a handful of times since moving to Oregon.

I am no expert myself, but i love chasing new destinations and flingin' a fly around to see what rises. Metollious is a jewel of a river in the cascades and there are tons of offroad opportunities so its hard to get bored between backroads and and back casts.
