Beautiful October Day in the High Lakes Region of Central Oregon

On October 10th my dog Barney and I hiked to the top of Round Mountain which is directly west about 9 miles from my home in La Pine Oregon.

It's an arduous hike to the top that I had failed reach all summer..

Along the way are beautiful views

Looking East toward La Pine

At the top is a Fire Watch Tower staffed by Forest Service people ...
