Natural Wonders all long the Bend...

by coneyislandgreen - last update: Nov 4, 2006

No Wonder People Like This Place

Deschutes National Forest @ entrance to Boyd Cave
In a recent edition of "Outside" magazine it was rated one of the top twenty places to live for an outdoors enthusiast and rated #1 place to live for lovers of hiking... I agree, I loved it there. A charming town by looks and character indeed.
China Hat Rd. Deschutes National Forest

There Always Seems to be a view of a Mountain

I really got scared in the Boyd lava Tube and so decided to head back into town and hike up Pilote Butte, a great hill with awesome views of the city and surrounding enviromental wonders.
McMenamins Brew Pub

Viva La McMenamin's!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This Hotel Chain is my favorite thing about the Northwest and their, Pubs, Theaters, Hotels, and a great many other things cannot be superseded by anything else. Each is unique, extremely quirky and fun, the Working Mans Resort.

Pros:"Great Town Center, Great Outdoor Activities, No sales tax..."
Cons:"I did not seem to have any on my visit..."
In A Nutshell:"Pub Crawl, with five local micro breweries this place is a beer mecca."

 When we go to Bend to ski, we like rent one of the houses at St Francis. Great place to hang out by the fires at night! Being a McMenamins fan myself since they took my old grade school and converted it into a similar establishment - Kennedy School ;-]
