Exploring Oregon's Desert | Hiking and Camping Trip to Escape the Rain
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 13 май 2023
- I’m traveling to the Bend area to escape the spring rains and soak up some Oregon desert sun. We will be hiking and camping around some iconic spots and scenic destinations. We will learn about native plants, geology and the mountain weather patterns that make travel and road trips in the Pacific Northwest so naturally beautiful, diverse, and exciting. We are always learning about nature while road tripping in the van, and this adventure is no exception. Oregon is truly a natural wonderland of forests, pines, rivers and campsites for swimming and adventuring all day in the great outdoors.

Being a nomad naturalist enables me to reconnect with nature in a whole new way. I hope to inspire this inner peace and happiness in others through a closer relationship with mama nature, through healthy eating, outdoor recreation, edible food gardening/farming, and sustainable living. RUclips has enabled me to better educate and inspire from the road.

So happy you love the learning resource!! :)
I lived in Brookings Oregon for 7 years. A beautiful little harbor town on the coast. I had no idea there was desert terrain ❤ it's gorgeous
Crazy! Different sides of the cascades are different worlds. Most people don’t realize that half the state is desert!
Absolutely breathtaking scenery, such a atmospheric and majestic vibe! Cinematography at its finest! 🔥
Aww happy to have you back around friend!! Your words always warm my heart ❤️ excited to get caught up on your videos when I get back to WiFi soon :)
Thanks for the views and commentary. Wonderfully informative. Be well. Wishing you happiness and fair weather ahead. Happy Trails!
All the best words and wishes! Thank you friend! Hope to have you along for many more!
Thx for taking us along 🙏
So happy to have ya :) stay awhile!!! Always an adventure around here!
Hi muñeca!
Every time that I watch your videos, I feel inspired to get out of my cave and see the sun and humans again. You are very charismatic and bright. Thank you for sharing your time and experiences. Stay safe, stay healthy, and stay happy.
Aww that’s the goal of my work!! I’m so happy I’m able to inspire you to get some outside time, although I usually try to avoid humans 😂😂 right back at ya!!
I luv how deep you are emotionally with nature. I hope to see you out on the trails.
Love that hehe any day getting deep with nature is a win in my book
It's so amazing, I couldn't help but rewatching it over and over again. I love it!
Aww this makes me smile :) thanks so much for the love!!
Nice video, thank you. 👍
Thanks friend ♥️♥️
@@kaylanrosa Thank you friend for your video and for answering me 🙂
I LOVE LOVE LOOOOVE your chill vibes energy. I could listen to you talk about trees and camping all day
Awww I’m so honored thank you so much friend. I’ll def keep providing all the plant talk!! ♥️
I’ve heard so little of Oregon’s desert. Such an underrated gem! And beautiful colors, so unique.
My thoughts exactly!! The color pallet was so stunning
Its a favorite place for over landers, if you go look up some of you tubes over landing channels you can find some terrific scenery, the desert there amazes me with the interspersed mountain ranges of forested and snow capped islands in the desert.
I had no idea that Oregon has a desert. Beautiful waterfall. Thank for for sharing. Safe travels.
Definitely an overlooked gem!! Thanks for watching ❤️❤️
new follower and fan from Seattle ❤ thanks for your vlog for sharing your adventures
Love your area! Thanks for joining the adventure:)
Just got back from from a month long ride and discovered eastern OR on my way south. Headed back out to spend more time there. 👍👏
You got good taste in spots! Hope it treats you well ❤
Thank you for sharing!!
Thank you for tagging along ♥️
Super cool! I need to explore Oregon more
Many hidden gems to discover!
The American West has the most amazing, and beautiful country
America has an incredibly diverse and beautiful landscape for sure :)
i saw Eastern Oregon because of your vlog thanks 😊 ❤
Honored :,) hope you had the best time!
Aren't you a breath of fresh air. Not sure how i found you but glad i did... keep on keeping on and thank you.
Right back at ya! Love connecting with my nature fam ❤
Beautiful and informative video as always! ❤
Love you queen ♥️♥️♥️
The smile I have watching this video and the smile didn't stop after your video. So nice to see you again. God Bless and be safe. ♥ U
Awww warms my heart to hear I could make ya smile with some nature!! Thanks so much for hanging with me friend!
Lots of good geology to check out too!
Lovely video. Nice to see a young person who appreciates nature,
Aww thank you!! I hope to inspire more people of all ages to appreciate the outdoors :)
Culver here love your energy headed out this weekend for 7 day adventure.
Aww thank you good energy is everything! Hope you get the same out of your trip!!
I always smell Junipers, blue spruces, mints, pines love em all used to always keep a pan of water on the wood stove and put handfuls of aromatic plants I picked that day in and let it boil yeah! Glad to know others still appreciate the simple things in life! Great vids!
Ooh yes we love a nice smell pot! Keeps the kitchen warm too! I love that idea!
Did you expect Oregon to have such dope desert?!?
Yes!! I want to go to the painted parts.. I believe hells canyon, near Idaho? Planning on going soon I hope! Great video, just subbed☺️
Hiii👋Rosa🌷🌹💞
Awesome desert Peaceful please Amazing video💘 Brave girl💪 are you alone in this Place🙋💃❤
Rather you should have a only fans page😊😊😊😊
Yeah, I didn't see that coming.
Born and raised in Southern Oregon and am glad Eastern Oregon is so unknown, so its still great to escape to it, sadly Central Oregon is starting to get overrun with people.
I think I would love it, I really appreciate plant aromas...feels more open in the desert....
Same!! Smells are half the fun of nature!
First visit....you are an amazing storyteller! I really enjoyed your energy and narrative. Thanks!
Aw you warm my heart :,) thank you so much!! Excited to have you around for future adventures!
This is cool! Not too many people show this side of Oregon too much so thank you for showcasing it! Man I need to get out that way to photograph!
Right?!? Super underrated. I have no doubt you’ll get some amazing shots.
Thank you for this. Just moved here from Hawaii. Living in south Washington. I haven't been able to explore Oregon, but you've inspired me to load up my new Outback Wilderness and buy a state park pass.
My goodness such lovely places you’ve lived! Some of my favorite states. Oregon parks pass is def a good deal!
You sure know your plant. Love your nerdy channel very unique in your own right. Thank you for sharing your knowledge of botany and geology. You got me i am your new subscriber.
Awww warms my heart to find people who appreciate learning about nature. Can’t wait to share more with you in the future!!! ❤️❤️❤️
first time I have seen your channel its really good scenery and rocks love it keep it up
Aww thank you! Def stick around we have no shortness of scenery!
Your very knowledgeable. Thank you
Glad you learned something! ♥️
What a wonderful vid, so knowledgeable, keep on truckin’ really loved the cinematic collage, you got a real gift, Best of luck out there on the range!
Aww this warms my heart. Thank you so much friend it’s comments like these that keep this girl truckin!
When you live on an island in the middle of the pacific and have not been back to the US in many years, living vicariously through ur beautiful vids really takes me away, so thank you!
Beautiful inside and out!
Thank you friend ♥️♥️♥️
We are currently at Cabin Lake. No lake, no cabin, but not a single person here all afternoon and evening either,, yet a flock of Pinyon Jays. Yes, just enough cell service to enjoy your vid.
Ooh I say no people is a win, although I’m sure it’s funny people who gave it that not so fitting name 😂 I love pinyon jays! One of my favorites. Thanks so much for watching friend :)
Awesome that you are exploring the inland N.W! Idaho ftw.
Ooh I adore Idaho and can’t wait to go back this summer.
👋👋enjoyed yr video snd the swim I didn’t mind 😊❤️❤️🥰
Thank you for watching!!! ♥️
@@kaylanrosa thank u for sharing ❤️❤️😊
I hear ya on the Juniper's..l feel the same way about pinion pine....the smell is magic.
Yaaas catch us sniffing alllllll the pines haha
Hi ya Kaylan once again you’ve nailed it top video , thank you 🙏 for sharing, I am definitely a 🏜️ desert person I’ll say hooray ( see ya for now) . Take care and stay safe cheers from Australia 🇦🇺🤩🙏🥵🥰
Thank you friend :) I’ve been thinking about the Australian desert lately! Hoping to make it out there within the next few years! Sending love back to you!!
Greetings and good sunshine. I wish you a blessed and safe day!😊
Thank you friend! Right back at ya!
Love your prose
Aww that means the world! I love writing and this has been a wonderful outlet ✨
Grato pelo passeio lindo de mais, forte abraço aqui do Brasil!
Waoo Amazing.
My thoughts exactly!
The quick change in rainfall totals in Oregon is amazing and its not just East of the Cascades, in Southern Oregon the Drain area at the North end of the Umpqua Basin gets around 46-48 inches per year but 30-35 minutes South around Roseburg its 30-31 inches per year and completely different vegetation in the valleys.
It’s fascinating how every little factor in the ecosystem can have a greater impact on the whole! Thanks for sharing!
Wow ! That's in Oregon !!!! I never knew there were places like that ! Beautiful !!!! I live in the PNW - got to go there !!!! Thank you for sharing and I've Subscribed ! There s nothing so special as rare rain in the most beautiful deserts :)
Awww the goal of my content is to share overlooked pieces of natural landscapes around the world and inspire others to explore, so I’m so happy to hear I’ve accomplished that!! I’m excited to explore desert in other parts of the PNW soon!! I agree, you never appreciate rain more than in the desert.
@@kaylanrosa What an incredibly inspirational goal that you chose. I kind of had that goal by exploring far out deserts in Jordan and when travelling from India overland to Europe :) Thanks for sharing your beautiful videos !!!!
Love the wild sage too cant beat that aroma, none to be found in the northeast have to buy it and hope its real! I used to be an environmental interpreter so I appreciate your knowledge of the fauna etc. thanks!
Such a high compliment from an environmental interpreter!!
I used to head to eastern Oregon from Tacoma to get a more "desert" vibe. The Painted Hills unit of John Day Fossil Beds is outstanding. Another secluded but remote gem is the Alvord Desert (a dry lake bed) southeast of Burns. And just past Klamath Falls in northern California is Lava Beds National Monument, which has amazing juniper smells, lava formations and even caves to explore (if that is of any appeal)
I'm now back in Arizona so I can get my desert vibes year round.
Ooooh yes i loved lava beds!!! Such cool caves and I’m huge on those. Those other spots are definitely on my list! Thank you for sharing :) As an Arizona native, I approve hehe AZ has some of the prettiest deserts
@@kaylanrosa Aha! The Arizona desert has a way of sticking to one's soul! Even on the days it's well over 100
I have seen that rock art before. Nice video
Thank you friend!!! Def was a cool find!
Steens mountain loop......hot springs sprinkled throughout....the sunstone mines near Plush.....the Owahee wilderness area. Just a few of the cool things to see.
Never ending things to see!
FWIW, the weird weather pattern was forcing rain up from the storm track hitting Cali. We were further out in the Great Basin watching it snow from the comfort of a tub at a hot spring. Usually the showers blow through and it's nice again in 20 minutes but the beginning of May saw incessant rain and wind followed by snow down to the valley floors -- amazing! I was glad we had brought my buddy's big Dodge AND that we had stayed at the springs. Our intended destination was further east and the roads are clay -- absolutely impassable when wet.
The weather patterns have definitely been wacky lately! Oregon/Cali had really late rains and snow, followed by crazy heat waves that shouldn’t be here for another month! Although a Hot Spring sounds like a wonderful way to enjoy that. I’ve definitely missed them since coming back from the East Coast and haven’t gotten a chance to get in one since.
lil Pete going strong!
Hahaha yaaaas shoutout to lil peeeete
Wherever the water was there was life in all its forms🏞️🌧️
Isn’t it amazing to witness?!?
@@kaylanrosa But it is true
Amazing video! Beautiful area to hike and explore. New follower here. Crow✌️
Aww thanks so much friend! So happy to have you along for the adventure :)
This area so reminds me of the mountains of northern New Mexico.
I always love finding similar places so far apart!! that’s still on my list to explore!
7:15 Agreed, camping does make everything better. I hit the road last summer in search of serenity after an awful family drama. I traveled up and down the Eastern Seaboard, Georgia to Vermont. Saw most of the Blue Ridge Parkway. Now I'd love to travel out West, but I have to wait for my finances to allow it. (One thing I discovered is that camping isn't as cheap as one imagines it to be.) Meanwhile, it's a delight to watch your videos and get some ideas about where to go and what to see!
9:00 Stunning landscape! I appreciate your geology notes, too.
Aww sounds like you hit some of my favorite parts of the east!! Cross country trips def take a bit of resources! Camping is such a simple little pleasure though. So happy it’s helped you through drama!!
That food looks delicious
Thanks so much!! I love making food content!! Would you be interested in a breakfast video?
@@kaylanrosa Absolutely:)
Hey girl thanks for sharing that! :-) it's so beautiful I miss Oregon I was born in Portland went to school in bend and worked in sisters for the forest service ,have you ever been to the glass Buttes or the Ice Caves outside of Bend? And I can smell the smells of the desert !I miss it. I have a few relatives have one living Uncle Left Alive in Portland that's all! my grandparents aunts and uncles are all gone .I have some cousins
Aww sounds like a lovely life! Oregon quality of life seems great. I’ll definitely check out those spots! Thank you so much :)
I grew up in the Oregon high desert, hope to retire there someday !
Sounds like a great place to do that!!! The desert is special :)
WOW! Kaylan I Just Found you and your so so COOL Love the beauty and the Glasses Yup 🛐☮☮ Im from Durango Colorado And Albuquerque New Mexico, I live in Littleton and I am doing my van life in
July 2023 Hope to see ou one day Maybe if our paths cross. Be Good and Safe As you Travel. Peace Out.2
Thanks friend!! I love that area of Colorado!! Lots of fun spots to road trip :) it was one of my first stops in my van!
Amazing work now a follower here and on IG
Thank you so much friend!! Happy to have you here!
Good narrator and story teller!
You flatter me! Thank you friend!
Ding Dang
I want to go 😳🤯
Thanks you for taking me with you
I needed that
Come get me LOL 😋
Have yourself absolutely fabulous evening
💚🌱✌️👣😳🤯😋
Thanks so much for tagging along!! Always fun to see new landscapes!
Not to run on but I remember taking a bath in a teeny pool in a stream while camping in the Smokey Mts, I think it was like 38 degrees! :)
I cold plunged every day in the Smokey mtns!! Love that area and made a video on it too :)
There is more to this story
@@kaylanrosa would love to see vid of smokeys
Hello Kaylen, nice video. I would like to talk to you about Western Junipers in the Great Basin.
I’m so here for the plant talk!! You can DM me on TT on insta.
The sagebrush ( Artemisia tridentata ) is in the same genus as the wormwood (Artemisia absinthium). They both have very unique and pleasant aromas.
Oooh thanks for the knowledge! Always happy to have fellow plant nerds here with me. I’m a huge fan of the sage smell :) I’ve heard of wormwood tea is that the same??
@@kaylanrosa Never made a tea myself, but have heard of others doing it. It's also a primary flavorant of the liquor absinthe. - Like you were saying of the sage smell, it really tells where you're at in the US, even if you travelled there in the night as soon as the Sun rises it's a very distinct regional aroma ( and, imho, a very pleasant one indeed ). :)
Bravo

Thank you friend ❤
That high desert fragrance is awesome! Do you have a degree is Botany you sound like you do? Loved the video!
Awwww the ultimate compliment! Most of my botanical knowledge is self taught although I did do some classes and programs :) thank you so much for watching!!!
Hmm, down here in my area, You missed harvesting some Morel Mushrooms, the torrential down pours of the last month have popped some spores, YUM!!!
Ahhhh I’m sooo dying to find morel mushrooms!!
@@kaylanrosa I would be happy to show you the ropes on them, even have some recipes that I made up over the years. Today I am getting my 4x4 4 wheeler ready to find some new patches.
keep going
Thank you!! Still going strong after two years!
What a fun and beautiful lady.....
Always trying to keep things fun!
❤
Que hermosa, stay cool yo
Gracias!! Right back at ya friend :)
I really like you! Very pretty and a fun girl. This is a good video and I look forward to watching many more !!!
Thank you friend :) so happy to have you around!!
Keep the steelhead secret.. 🌼
That’s why I didn’t reveal any names :)

" I had this canyon completely to myself"
. . . . except for the 7.9k viewers who really enjoyed watching you take your dip! 😁
Haha yes although probably couldn’t have edited out my butt in real life 😂😂
You book could be called " somewhere west of Paisely.
I’ll have to remember that! I got a few book ideas of my own, one of which is in the header of my channel :)
Great video. I'm moving to Oregon in September. Is that state vanlife friendly?
Thank you :) Definitely!! As all places, there are some areas that are more and some that are not but definitely a lot of good camping.
@@kaylanrosa Thank you! I'm actually moving to Bend, any thoughts on that town for vanlife?
Super vanlife friendly!!!!!!
California's pass is $190! Oregon is a bargain in many ways, and it's a jewel, from the Coast to the desert.
Whoa that’s insane!! Def hard to manage for those visiting.
Washington has the same topography, parts of central Washington look like areas of Kansas.
I’m very excited to explore Washington deserts one day!
👍💪
♥️✨
Looks like steelhead falls.
Maybe it is… maybe it isn’t 😏
I grew up there😁
Overnight oats look like a pile of melted mush. Are they tasty?
Looks can be deceiving, tastes like a Reese’s peanut butter cup!
I live there.
Where do you like to hike in the area?
@@kaylanrosa Tumalo falls, Cascade lakes loop, East Lake to name a few.
Keep an eye out for rattlers
As a native Arizonan I know all too well how to spot em

No thanks 😂

Come to las vegas there's a desert
Hehe I have done some sweet hot springs hikes in the lake mead area!
In Australia we do not call that a Desert it has rivers rainfall and absolutely where you went no Sand Dunes though surprisingly there are sand Dunes and quite a few in Michigan and other states bordering the great lakes not just in California and points toward Mexico.
We have the Great Sandy desert, The Simpson desert, Tanami desert, Gibson desert,Victorian desert, Little Sandy desert, Strzeleski desert, Sturt desert,Pedrika desert and finally the Tirari desert and ranging in size from 348,750 square Kilometers to 1250 square kilometers.
That is just conventional terrain in a rain shadow behind a mountain range it may be arid but it is not really a desert like we have or such as the Sahara in Northern Africa.
There are sand dunes in plenty of places not considered desert! Also many deserts can have riparian areas like the ones in this video. The majority of the land here is dry and characterized by very little rainfall :) I’m from the Arizona Sonoran desert and it’s got lots of sand, rocks and cactus but even a few regions like this along seasonal creeks/rivers. They come in so many different shapes and sizes! Can’t wait to see Australian desert though :)
@@kaylanrosa THis is one about crossing the Simpson Desert in Australia on a track known as the Madison line, Many of our deserts have famous tracks from the early explorers who often used Camels as transport
Australia in the very early days imported camels and Afghans who rode them as sort of packhorses in Desert exploring in the early days.
A legacy of that is we export many of our wild camels to the Middle east as they are highly prized purebreds not available easily over there.
We also export Dates because once again we have premuim date palms the Arabs prize very highly as they are also pure unaltered stock bought here hundeds of years ago and planted in different Deset Oasis for food by the Afhgans and they really suit our climate.
So as you will see what we call Desert in Australia is vastly different from Arid semi desert lands caused predominately by Rain Shadow effects in many places aropund the world.
Our open spaces are vast beyond belief and for instance the Highway from South Australia to Western Australia across the Nullabor plain on the Eyre Highway takes about four or five days with almost no directional change it is pretty much dead straight.
Nullabor is Latin for Treeless plain and it is about 750 Km wide and takes as noted the best part of a week to travel across because it is almost 1700 Kilometres long on the Road trip.
Hoping I did not come across too harsh in not considering that terrain a desert as we know it and the linked Video might explain how we view Deserts differently then others.

Omg in heaven you are absolutely gorgeous ❤
Aww thank you friend :)
@Kaylan Rosa you are most definitely welcome. 😊 We have a lot in common btw. 😉
Can you fish that river
I’m not sure! I’m sure some of the fish are protected though so it may be complicated hehe
Theres a lot of rules and much of it is on warm springs reservation.
I thought Oregon was à chilly and wet state.
It’s got a little bit of everything!!
Hay kaylan❤ nice to meet you 💐🙏 your video is awesome , you are so great woman 💐🙏 i like and i love your heart ❤💐🙏. Take care❤ ❤❤❤❤❤ 6:02 ❤
You’re so kind! So happy to have your energy here :)
@@kaylanrosa when you come to India 🇮🇳 💐🙏I will come to tour with you 💐🙏
Lol sage and juniper smells like cat piss thats why i live south ware pine trees are i hate juniper plus there not native to the land and use a lot of water also there so tough on chains they really make beautiful furniture and the juniper berry is used to make jin .have a great time exploring high desert id suggests also spending some time high cascades .
Haha it can def have that smell sometimes but I guess I just get lucky lol. The juniper are native in many parts of the west though! Cool plant with tons of functional and medicinal uses! I love the high cascades and def am getting back this summer. Any spot suggestions?
@Kaylan Rosa sheep's bridge campground next to crane prairie reservoir and pulina lake is really cool and has hot springs you just have to dig yours out if there isn't any holes dug, I have the most fun just picking a spot to check out and driving around is part of the adventure. Safe travels and nice talking with ya .
As you described the formations at around the 9 minute mark, all I could think about was, “YEAH! Everything was formed by destruction.” I had bitter, sweet images in my head about how it was formed to how it looks now. Kind of spooky. Lol.
Haha love hearing from my fellow rock nerds!! Honestly I’m sure the formations have gone through many different looks!
First video Ive seen of yours.
I’m enjoying your combo of info & scenery.
Would love less music and more nature background sounds. At minimum lower the volume of the music track.
People, like myself w cognitive issues have difficulty/pain processing the music back tracks. Especially with music and vocal track combined.
Thanks for considering.
Thanks for watching friend!! I always appreciate feedback and I’ll definitely keep that in mind for when my audio allows hehe sometimes it’s just deafening wind sounds or my heavy breathing unfortunately 😂😂
Did you see any bears?
Not on this trip but I’ve seen four total since moving onto the road two years ago!
@@kaylanrosa , just be careful…
How do you afford that van they aren't cheap. And your very young. You really have that kind of money or your parents help? Just curious
When you take out a loan and it’s your only housing expense it’s much cheaper than rent! I’ve lived in this van for almost two years, working a variety of jobs on the road.
That is awesome. Go you
Lol
Hi lady. Why you have come that place by your own self? Please look after your self. You're 10:56 so beautiful. God bless you lady. Please take care of your self Have a great day.❤❤❤❤
Aww thank you!! I think relationship with self is incredibly important so solo travel is one of my favorite things to do :) even though I do travel with loved ones and friends sometimes too!
