burns oregon

went try pointing by moonlight last night
a possible first
aiming for the crook deschutes harney tricounty point
aka usor3crdeha
but the roads gave out way sooner than expected

flushed alot of huge white bunnies out of the sagebrush tho

chalk up another class e visit
e for elusive but excellent as well as eery


also passed yesterday very near the official usgs geographic center of
oregon
notwithstanding the disclaimers in bus&ss

for a while
by my first quick measurement of 25 mi sse of prineville
as stated there
i imagined the point fell on a feature named rodman rim
& i thought what a wonderful idea to name the center point like that after
such a worldclass bounder who always controlled the rim
so mdonner gave a big salute to the rim & rodman
but a more careful measurement after my visit left this shot also short of
the rim & in fact on the other side of the road

out of time
& likely even more out of touch for a few days
in very wide open spaces
