Backcountry trekking in Oregon is always an exciting thing to do. We all need to get out in the outdoors once in a while, and if you happen to be in Wasco County of Oregon, Blue Lake Camas Prairie Trail is a wonderful local wilderness trail for doing a bit of leg stretching. The
length of this trail is about average with an average amount of climbing distance which makes this a very tough wilderness trail for advanced trekkers looking for an outstanding challenge. This backcountry walk shouldn't take more than 5.5 hours, but you never know stuff could
go wrong and you could get stuck so be prepared for that. This backcountry hiking trail has only one trailhead, so in and out is the way to backcountry walk it normally. This is just one of a large number of wilderness trails in this area. Blue Lake Camas Prairie Trail is a rather
wet place mostly with a lot of precipitation; December is when you get the most rain here; July on the other hand is the driest.
Briefly about the general area:
If you go for the outdoors you'll go for it here in the Central Cascade Range. Lemiti Campground is a good
local campground, and a spree to Lemiti Meadow rejuvenates the soul.
If you came for an overnight stay Trout Lake Campground is a glorious location to camp, and Cedar Meadow is a great location to check out.
