All, thought I'd share with you a quick video compilation I put together of my hoonage on the Alvord desert in Harney County, Oregon.

It was a total of 15 hours out and back from PDX to the desert, and too many miles of bumpy gravel road just to get on to the playa. I was able to convince a group of my friends out there for this since it was recently my 30th.

Dust is everywhere outside and inside my car, but I suppose at least there isn't caked gunk like I've seen in photos from cars coming off a salt flat.

Anyway, I highly suggest for those who are dedicated and enjoy really raw camping to make your way out there, but there are no services for miles so a breakdown could become a catastrophic problem.

Maybe this can become a planned event in the future? It would be a lot to coordinate though...
