New softball rankings …

… look a lot like the old softball rankings with SOU on top. Interestingly, the coaches’ #2 and #3 teams aren’t in Massey’s top nine.

“New” view of Mt. Ashland

Mt. Ashland and Bear Creek from the greenway

I took a ride on the Bear Creek Greenway yesterday and discovered this view. I’ve ridden (or, less frequently, walked) the greenway dozens of times over the past 20 years, maybe over a hundred. But I’ve never noticed this view before. Was it always there and I just missed it? Or did last September’s Almeda Fire allow it to be seen? I don’t know, but I’m glad to have finally found it.

Gameday!

Daffodil days are done

Daffodils on Ridge Road

The cherry and plum blossoms have been falling the past few days after peaking a week or so ago. Daffodils are also fading, but they looked pretty good a couple weeks ago when I took this.

Stout Grove in the California Redwoods

On our way back from three nights in Gold Beach on the Oregon coast this past weekend, we stopped off in Stout Grove for the first time in over eight years. We went there probably 10 times during our first 12 years in Ashland but haven’t had the chance recently.

Three Sisters from Whychus Overlook

The third-, fourth-, and fifth-highest peaks in Oregon

We’ve spent the past several days in Bend. On Saturday we did about a 6-mile or so hike that included this view. The view actually was better later at a place called Peak View. We were the only people on the last couple miles of this loop trail.

Directions: Start at the Whychus Creek Trailhead parking area. The trail along the creek is lovely. Most people do it as an out and back. Hence, that trail can be rather crowded. Turn it into a loop, instead, by going to Whychus Creek Overlook (pictured above), then cross the highway at the Whychus Creek Overlook Parking area. From there take a mountain bike trail from point 34 to 29 on the map you’ll see at 34. 29 is Peak View. At 29 you can get off the mountain bike trail and onto a steep, but beautiful, trail down to the Whychus Creek Trailhead parking area. There are warnings about the steepness and difficultness of that section, but unless it’s icy you’ll be fine walking it. You wouldn’t want to be on a bike though.
