Here is one of the recordings I made a couple weeks ago, a thermal pool in the middle of sage desert, the static sound is actually hundreds of tiny bubbles popping, along with larger gurgles and bubbles. Some crickets and occasional flies and birds. At the end a surprise treat of thunder.

#Oregon is invested in #FoxCorp. and is investigating its board over bogus election fraud claims
Oregon's attorney general announced Monday she has begun investigating the board of directors of Fox Corp. for breaching its fiduciary duties by allowing #FoxNews to broadcast false claims about the 2020 presidential election — claims that cost the broadcaster almost $800 million in a lawsuit.

As the climate crisis deepens and the oceans warm, fish are moving, and those movements are already causing conflicts around the world. An international research team, led by an Oregon State professor, is trying to understand how changes in fish ranges are likely to impact economies and security in the decades ahead and avoid the next fight over fish.

Here’s a 4-pack of the remaining mountains from my Larch Mountain hike on Saturday. I hope the next iPhone does have the rumored “periscope lens.” Need more zoom.

This weekend I went to the High Desert Museum in Bend, #Oregon.
I did not expect it to be so big and fancy. They have a whole wing dedicated to the #Indigenous people of the Plateau tribes.

@ifixcoinops 🥥 I love this home cooling tip of yours, Dan.
I can say from experience that it really works here in southwestern #Oregon -- until a string of days that are triple-digit Fahrenheit (above 38 degrees centigrade). Then the outside air doesn't cool down enough to do much good.
Sound of sad trombone. 🥥

My plans this weekend were canceled so I’m free to go backpacking. I’m running out of options without snow. Wahtum Lake apparently still has lots of snow. Requirements: Water that can be filtered and no to little snow. Anyone have any ideas for a 2 night trip in northwest Oregon or southwest Washington?
USGS now reporting that there were three earthquakes in quick succession under Mount Hood.
14:35:15 Tuesday - M3.0, 1.4km deep
14:36:03 Tuesday - M2.2, 2.0km deep
14:36:06 Tuesday - M2.6, 3.1km deep
Interesting, but still not a sign that an eruption is imminent.
(Updated with better info)
M3.0 #earthquake near Mount Hood, #Oregon at 14:35 Tuesday. Earthquakes around the volcanoes are normal and do not mean an eruption is imminent.
If you are in the #Portland, Mount Hood, or Columbia Gorge regions you can help seismologists by filling out the “did you feel it” survey linked below - even if you didn’t feel anything.

A little *Rosa Mundi* for your Sunday?
(These are very old -c1400 A.D.- roses which are classed as "crawlers," or "creepers" and resemble berry canes when out of flower. Even the buds, which look like crinkled cylinders of paper when closed, are different than the usual modern hybrids. No two blooms look exactly the same. In fact, there are a couple of solid dark pinks just out of the frame.)
I hiked the Elk Mountain - King’s Mountain Loop this morning. I tell myself I’m never doing this trail again each time, today being no exception. Elk Mountain is difficult, but fine. The technical section between Elk and King’s begins with repelling down the mountain with a rope. From there, it’s “trail” on cliff edges and parts where you have to scramble up rock with not much to hold onto and cliffs behind you if you slip.

Evey's "helping" with the medallion hunt search as we head out for the 7th day of the game 🐾 🗺️
In previous years, the medallion was found on day 9 (2022) and day 10 (2020), so it may still be a little early. But it's always helpful to get the lay of the land in advance!
Plus we get to see tons of spaces around Oregon that are totally new to us—which is the true fun of the experience every year

#Indigenous leaders, including descendants of those who survived massacres at #ThackerPass, are camping in protest. As I visited, a truck arrived hauling chain link panels to fence off one of the access roads to the camp.
Indigenous leaders said they could use supplies, but more than that they need people to show up and camp with them, peacefully, prayerfully, and prepared for the possibility of arrest.
This weekend I visited #ThackerPass, where the largest lithium mine in the US is under construction on lands of cultural and historical significance to the Paiute, Shoshone and Washoe people, near the #Nevada / #Oregon border.
Impacted tribes have not given consent for the open pit mine, but the Biden administration and a federal judge have approved it to supply lithium for electric vehicle batteries.

Made it back home so here’s some bonus photos and a trail report for those in the area. Within the last two weeks the Larch Mountain trail has been completely cleared of downed trees. The trail hasn’t been this well maintained since 2019. Snow at 4000 feet has mostly melted. Only one tiny patch on the entire trail. Hoping that Wahtum Lake will be clear in two weeks but it’s apparently still super snowy.

Mount Hood from the summit of Larch Mountain. Powered hiked up from sea level 7 miles to the 4056 ft. viewpoint in 2:37, probably my personal best. Such an amazing location and there are zero people up here. The views up here also include Mt. St.Helens, Mt. Rainier, Mt. Adams, and Mt. Jefferson. Time to jog back down.

“Majority Democrats in #Oregon Senate will begin fining GOP members $325 for each day they continue to boycott the legislative session as part of monthlong effort to block a bill that would keep #abortion legal in the state.
Oregon Sen. Pres announced he'll issue fines beginning Mon as Dems attempted to force members back to business that has been delayed since the walkout began on May 3”
Anyone interested in doing the digital nomad thang on the left coast of the U.S. should come to #Portland #Oregon! It's gorgeous weather now in the #PNW, we don't have any sales tax unlike our neighbors to the north or south, and everything is lush and green. You get whiffs of perfume just walking by flower beds. World-class coffee houses galore. $5 all-day public transit. Bike or scooter rentals everywhere. What's not to like?!
