Good Morning from Prineville in Central Oregon @ Lower Crooked National Wild & Scenic River! | 4K

4K View of GORGEOUS Lower Crooked National Wild & Scenic River in Prineville, Central Oregon. This is West of the Prineville Reservoir State Park in an area of 9 Campgrounds, 2 Day Use Areas, 1 Dam, 1 Dedicated Boat Ramp, and 1 World-Class Hiking Trail operated by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM).

Crooked River is divided into 3 National Wild & Scenic River Designated Sections - THIS ONE is the "Chimney Rock" Segment, named for this geological formation. Chimney Rock is also the name of the main premier Hiking Trail, as well as the name of the Campground adjacent to the Trailhead.....clearly Chimney Rock has left its impression and mark on the nomenclature of this high desert wonderland river canyon area.

This is a very hot area, it is the high desert with direct sun. I did this on 4/2/24, with a low of 35F and a high of 77F.
