JJ and I are heading out in the morning The 19th and are staying till Sun or monday. Snowed here in Bend today but supposed to be fairly nice by Friday and Sat.
Head out on hwy 20 east of Bend. about 1 1/2 hrs to mile marker 77 there is a road that cuts off to the right and just follow the main road and tracks going in. It will lead you right to the camp area along the road. Keenan

For all those reading this post. Jim Riggs Knapping area is further down the road than the camping area. Most people comming to the Buttes have 4 wheel drive and will help you pull your car out if it gets stuck. Dont let this scare you from comming since I have only heard of it getting so bad that people had to be towed out on the main road once in all the years this event has been going on. It also dries up really quickly out in the desert there. May rain then will be gone and bone dry within a day or two or less. ;D Its the desert, what can I say? Be prepared for anything weather wise! ;D
