Lava Island Deschutes River– Bend, Oregon - Hike Report
What a fun adventure Linda, Cam, Ida, Diane, George and I had on the Lava Island Hike. It was more than just a hike! We cheered on the whitewater rafters as they were hootin and hollerin on the way down the Deschutes River…a perfect day to be on the water. The birds were chirping, the wildflowers were beautiful…what more could we have asked for!
On the way back, we were entertained by two young men swinging high over the Deschutes River up on a rope & doing flips before landing in the river! Oh to be young!
Another highlight was the osprey tucked high up in the tree at the end of the hike!
On the way home we stopped at Benham Falls. What a great day filled with Mother Nature’s beauty, friends and great weather.
