Day 15 - Dry alkali lake



The countryside in eastern Oregon amazed and confounded me. This part of the state is like the eastern side of the Sierra - dry and parched, receiving almost no rainfall each year. There were thousands of acres of sagebrush, absolutely no trees, hot sun unobstructed by any clouds. Very Nevada-ish. These 2 shots show a dry alkali lake (not Lake Abert) and general scenery just south and west of Burns.
