Wow, cracks and caves and trees. This trip had it all. I've never seen a lookout like that. Interesting. 

 

Yup Craig, that was one sturdy structure. Thanks for the nice comment!

Nice report on that area, it is very unique.  We once visited Crack In The Ground in early June.  It was 90 degrees out, but the bottom of the crack was packed with ice.  Looks like the first step on the ice would send you to the bottom with no escape.

I've been out there many times and never saw another soul. Strange times.

 

BTW, between Fort Rock and Hole ITG, is Cow Cave on private land.  Very significant discovery.
