McKenzie PassPart 5/Whispering Pines Campground

So we continued on to check out one of the campgrounds, we actually thought it was a short distance as they didn't say how far, but turned out to be a long ways, but a pretty drive. Once we found it we were surprised that there wasn't a soul up there, and i am not sure but may not of been for some time, there was garbage in the containers though. For people with horses this is a beautiful area to take them and ride.
Whispering Pines Campground has changed there fees from what the website says.Check that out for directions and any other great things to see on the trails.











I think this is called Skunk Cabbage but does have a beautiful flower.

Part 4 McKenzie Byway

Dee Wright Observatory be sure to check this site out as it has some interesting things to read and see.

Part 3 McKenzie Byway

So here is the road to the Observatory i wanted to share the drive with you. So many of the trees are dead and look like there might be a desease on them.Hope you enjoy the ride . Next post will be the Observatory.


This pass only allows vehicles up to 35 ft so motor homes any longer than that can not go there. And to tell ya the truth i wouldn't even think about taking our 30ft motor home thru there. That road is very narrow and in some spots very curvy. So think twice before taking any thing longer than 25ft.
