A slide show presentation by

William L. Sullivan

Oregon's hiking guru takes on a slide show tour of a dozen new trails he discovered while researching the new third edition of his book, "100 Hikes/Travel Guide: Eastern Oregon." Discover a colorful badlands on the Owyhee River, a new wilderness with cactus flowers on the John Day, and a viewpoint hike to a ranch at the east end of the Columbia Gorge. We'll even explore a half a dozen little-known hot springs. As always, Sullivan spices his talk with notes on the geology, wildlife, and history of the land.

Sullivan is the author of 17 books about Oregon, including "Oregon Trips & Trails," "Oregon's Greatest Natural Disasters," Hiking Oregon's History, and the popular “100 Hikes” series. His journal of a 1000-mile hike he took across Oregon in 1985, “Listening for Coyote,” was chosen by the Oregon Cultural Heritage Commission as one of Oregon’s “100 Books,” the 100 most significant books in the state’s history. He has also written four novels and a collection of short stories, “The Oregon Variations.”
