Roadside Oregon

Mt Hood from Lost Lake. A classic Oregon view. There are a lot of areas on the North side of the lake looking south to the mountain. Just find a spot a take a photograph like this.

You can see the area in a Google Map view here.

I was driving back from Central Oregon one evening, and saw the sunset colors coming. I grabbed my map and found what I hoped would be a nice view. Leaving Hwy 20 North of Bend and heading West, the end of Tumalo Reservoir Road basically puts you here. I pulled off to the right a took this photograph.

I heard that the reservoir is used as the water supply for the city of Bend and the recreation on the lake is prohibited.

You can see a Google Map image of the are here.

Mountain and valley lakes, clear lakes and perhaps a frozen one or two.
