If there’s anyone who can lay claim to hiking all over Oregon, it’s former EW columnist Bill Sullivan. Having hiked nearly every public trail in Oregon with 17 guidebooks to his name, Sullivan’s your man if you’re in search of a trail more out-of-the-ordinary than Skinner Butte or Fern Ridge. On Thursday, Jan. 23, Sullivan will present “New Hikes in the Central Oregon Cascades,” a slide show lecture that off ers a handful of newly discovered trails that Sullivan unearthed while he was updating one of his guidebooks, 100 Hikes in the Central Oregon Cascades. Attend the talk and you’ll get the inside scoop on a Mt. Jeff erson wildfl ower meadow and a hot springs near Oakridge, sure to trigger a few, “Where is that?!” comments on Facebook.
