Hey everyone.... this thread is reserved for planning the OAS2021 trip from Walla Walla to the Alvord Desert, using the Oregon Backcountry Discovery Route as a conduit.
Trip dates are August 13-22, starting at Quirk Brewing in Walla Walla WA on the afternoon of August 13.
Check back for more trip details. I'm modifying the route a bit from OAS2020 to avoid some of the 'fun' OHV routes we used (and were abused by). The trip has a full roster, but I'm certain a few people will back out, so if you're interested in joining us this year, send me a PM and I'll add you to our waitlist.

Plans are forming up - I'm going to assemble the Escalante Staircase ideas and sent the tracks we've been discussing to the folks on our email list that have signed up for the trip and have expressed interest in Escalante.
A possible change of meet-up could be Craters of the Moon just North of Blackfoot Idaho on Saturday August 14th. Then drive down to Escalante together on Sunday.
