1. New Pine Creek, CA to Paisley

NEW PINE CREEK TO PAISLEY – 128 miles

The Oregon BDR starts in the quaint town of New Pine Creek, CA (no gas) and winds steeply up the Warner Mountains, bringing you quickly up to beautiful forested dirt roads, open meadows, and rugged landscapes. After descending to Lakeview where gas is available, the route passes by Cottonwood Reservoir then follows more gravel and two track roads in Fremont National Forest. Keep your eyes on the road because the stunning ridgeline view as you descend into the town of Paisley will really grab your attention. Gas up in Paisley and, if you have time, visit Oregon’s oldest operating saloon, the Pioneer Saloon for some great food and drinks. Stop by Summer Lake Hot Springs to camp or stay in a cabin (reservations required, no day-use soaking allowed).
