He set just the right pace for my daughter and me, both decent riders, so we got to enjoy an amazing half day ride. One of our favorite parts of the experience was that it was just the three of us--Braden, my daughter, and me. It made the ride feel personal, peaceful, and unhurried. The scenery was simply phenomenal. The views were breathtaking from start to finish, and the trail itself was, hands down, the best trail I've ever ridden. If you're visiting Wallowa Lake, I can't recommend this experience highly enough. And if you have the chance to ride with Braden, you're in for a wonderful experience! Thank you to Pokey and Filbert too!

Apple Maps* doesn't actually take you to the right spot (see my maps screen shot). I think Google maps is more accurate. Just keep following the road signs and you'll find it though! Amazing views and definitely worth the drive. There's public bathrooms (don't expect too much) and plenty of parking. There's only two, but we found an open picnic table and hung around with some wine for about an hour. No garbage cans so be prepared to take back what you bring with you. I would recommend taking snacks to picnic and make the most of it since the drive is long and windy.

Hells Canyon is a dramatic feature housing the Snake River along the Oregon/Idaho border. It's very…read morewell known for fishing and whitewater recreation. There are a couple of ways to experience Hells Canyon - you can drive down the canyon itself, take a boat tour past the dam (where the road ends), or you can head up into the Wallowas and score some spectacular views from up top. This is that up-top spot. To get to the overlook be ready to go deep up the National Forest Service roads. Mostly gravel. Take NF 39 off of State Route 86, and then turn up NF 490. This will take you close to the wilderness area and into gorgeous mountains studded with stands of evergreens, alpine meadows, and, at the right time of year, tons of wildflowers. The Wallowas are considered one of the Seven Wonders of Oregon... but that's a story for another review. This overlook is fairly primitive but has everything you need to take in the 270-degree panoramas from this vantage. Picnic tables, toilets, a parking area, and a small trail out to where you get the best views out over Hells Canyon. While the views from up here are expansive, they don't really do the canyon justice. It's hard to see deep down into the canyon from here. But that said, the views are still great. We visited in late June on a hot, early-summer year, so the wildflowers were in full effect at this location. Tons of delicate alpine flowers. So pretty! The interpretive signs give you some good info on the geography of the area as well as info on the local wolf population. So cool to be in the area where these endangered animals still roam. Coming from Portland, I hear about the gray wolves from time to time on NPR. It's great to be out where they actually might pass by every once in a while. It's a strong punctuation on the remoteness of the location. After soaking in views and catching a picnic here, you can continue on NF 490 to complete a loop down the NW side of the Wallowas into Wallowa lake and Joseph, a path we followed, which offers a ton of great gravel-road driving. Insane alpine views, sweet untouched air, and deep green solitude. I highly recommend taking this byway. A much more interesting way to get from nowhere to nowhere. The road less traveled.

No problem, we made other arrangements to fly to the River Lodge instead. Eagle Cap collected a $400 deposit in January for my family's trail rides to and from the lodge. They have not refunded me my deposit. I followed up many times, they said that they would provide me the refund when they had the money. They have stopped responding to my emails and I never received the refund. Eagle Cap is not trustworthy. Don't give them a deposit!

I contacted Wes & Molly at Eagle Cap Wilderness Outfitters and they put a customized pack in/pack out package together for us. Due to the late winter and excessive snow amounts that accumulated in March, we were forced to deviate from our original plan and come up with other options to our preferred site. Molly didn't miss a beat and came up with a new plan to get us where we wanted to go. The riding stock were excellent and the pack mules did their job getting us in. We ended up filling our bear tags early, so I climbed a high ridge, got a hold of Molly and she was able to come get us two days early. Molly packed our gear, camp and bears out without a hitch. I also wish to say, Molly did a great job of packing up our gear and keeping our rifles safe and ready to go. I would also like to state that due to the late winter/excessive snow, our rides in and out were longer than expected, but Molly didn't miss a beat and got us in and out safely. Being a former outfitter myself, I know the small things that go into being a great outfitter. Eagle Cap Wilderness Outfitters does all those little necessary things and they run an excellent service. I have already told Molly that if we are fortunate enough to draw our spring bear tags for next year, we will want them to take us back in. It was a memorable experience in many ways. Beautiful country, visiting old stomping grounds (harvested my first bear in the area over 20 years ago), and enjoying time with my buddy. Thanks to Eagle Cap Wilderness Outfitters, our time going in and coming out added to those memories......Brett Jantze (May 2019)
