Central Oregon

Thursday June 23rd, Kah-nee-ta OR to Prineville, OR, 60 miles, 3500 feet of climbing

Today's route took us on a mostly southern route to Central Oregon.  Again weather conditions were near ideal with partly sunny and temps in the 60s (knock wood we can keep this streak going).  After leaving the hotel we had a climb,  followed by another long and exhilarating descent.  The toughest climb of the day followed, a four miler with about 2000 feet of climb.  At the summit were able to look back to a spectacular view.

The final 25 miles showed more irrigated agricultural farms as opposed to low density ranching.  We are staying in Prineville, a town of about 9,000.
