Oregon Sunshine.

Add to my Favorites

Timing your road trips in the spring is everything, especially this year with winter holding on longer than most of us out west were bargaining for. Geoff Gulevich, Ross Measures and Harookz snuck down to Oregon for a quick strike of sunshine, a visit to the DAKINE offices, and bit of riding in Hood River and Bend. Here are a few video’s and shot’s from the trip.

Classic Post Canyon.

We took a group of second graders up to watch in Post Canyon. They called out tricks as Geoff dropped in. He obliged them.

More of Geoff on the second grade remote control.

After scoping out Hood River for a few days, the crew rolled to Bend for a few days.

The revised Dual Slalom track offered up some nice evening light.

Sunshine and dust.

Good times at Jamie Goldman's private playground.

Wrapping it up in Bend and heading north. A quick strike to Oregon can deliver on sun and some good riding if the timing is right.

Gully is a badass! We went snowboarding in some thigh deep powder at Whistler last winter and he was killing it on the board too!

I think they just photoshoped the sun into all those pictures, it wasn't really out.

zanetb Plus (Jun 3, 2011 at 1:45)

good job though, the photos are amazing. Are some of the single track pictures of Nestor peak?
