Adventures in the Alvord Desert

from Peak Northwest · host The Oregonian/OregonLive

This week on the Peak Northwest podcast, we’re talking all things Alvord Desert. The seasonally dry lakebed in the far southeastern corner of the state is known for its beautiful cracked playa, stunning scenery and the adventures it affords – from quiet exploring to jet-powered vehicles. Jamie dives into his recent trip to the playa, where he soaked in hot springs, caught a sunset and did some late-night stargazing. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
