On Friday, we were feeling ambitious, and we started our hike up Black Butte at 7pm. We made it to the top in about an hour. Apparently, it is very steep--but it was nothing compared to the Andrews. The views were spectacular:
Fire lookout tower!

On Saturday we visited the Headwaters of the Metolius, where water comes out of the ground and becomes a river. Very cool:
We also went for a hike in Alder Springs, a nice area with canyons. It reminded me of Utah, but it was much more lush.

And this morning, we packed up camp and went to Ari and Alex's favorite breakfast place in Bend: Jackson's Corner. It was delicious:
