Old Makenzie Hwy - Dee Wright Observatory

Somewhere on the Old McKenzie Pass enjoying a late summer date with Glenn, Andrew and Debbie. This is the fire I was suppose to keep going while the others walked around the lake.
What a beautiful lake.

This is a mountain dial that sits in the middle of the obervatory. The dial points to the mountain with the name and the elevation. As you can see from the photo this dial has been there awhile.
Walking back down to the road.
Interpretive Center at the end of the trail, this story board talked about the woman who settled in Oregon during the early days. This just fascinates me, I can't believe the life they lead let alone how these woman raised a family.
