Mt. Jefferson from Detroit Lake, OR.  A few miles away is a great counter culture style resort called Breitenbush Hot Springs.  It is often booked for conferences on such things as "hatha yogurt," --- I mean hatha yoga, but other times it is open to travelers.  It is good to check in advance.  The Radical Fairies, a gay social network, has gatherings there also. 

It was open to the public as I passed through the area so I stayed there and relaxed around the hot tubs.  Met a lot of nice people including someone who had just been to a conference that my brother had given.  My brother lives clear across the country, but it's still a "small world."  Soon after meeting the friend of my brother's, a person, I knew, from Bellingham, walked up.  He was thinking of moving to Portland. 

About 2001 conference I went to at Breitenbush
