Calling all hikers with a yen for high, lonely places: you can bag that peak if you want to. Scrambling is the bridge between hiking and rock climbing. It involves off-trail travel-making your way over rough terrain and sometimes using your hands for balance and safety on nearly vertical rock-but does not require technical climbing gear. 75 Scrambles in Oregon will take you to some of the same summits that climbers enjoy-but by less extreme routes.

These scrambles (short, easy introductory routes and longer, more difficult scrambles) are generously spread across Oregon: the Cascades; Klamath Mountains (SW corner); East Cascades; the Wallowas, Elkhorns, and Blue Mountains (NE); the Strawberry Mountains near John Day; and remote desert ranges (SE corner). Routes are rated for difficulty and skill level. Where nonstandard equipment such as an ice axe, crampons, rope, or helmet are advised, that is noted route by route.

Barbara I. Bond is a trip leader for the Mazamas, an outdoor activities and conservation club. She is a professional writer and lives in Portland, Oregon. You can find Barbara on FACEBOOK, or you can visit her web site for more information at OregonScrambles.com.

The 2025 Outside Festival in Denver Was Electric. Here’s What You Missed.
　　At first, the breeze felt wonderful—a blast of chilly air to dull the afternoon heat. 　　It was Sunday, June 1, and I was standing at the entrance to Denvers Civic Center Park, welcoming guests to the Outside Festival, clad in my sweat-stained volunteer t-shirt. In front of me, 15,000 or so guests swarmed the park. Some crowded the main stage...
These 10 Places Have the Darkest Skies in the U.S. for Stargazing
　　First it was the moon, then it was cloudy, then it rained. I’d been waiting five days for the Oregon skies to light up. Then around 10:30 on a cold April night, the clouds lifted, and the constellations swung into view. Auriga was already rising in the west, with its brightest star, Capella, gleaming against the black. Leo was directly...
Stop Drifting, Keep Fishing: Power-Pole Micro Anchor Review
　　One of the biggest frustrations I faced as a kayak angler was floating past the juiciest-looking spots without a cast because I didn’t have a way to stop instantly. After I installed the Power-Pole Micro Anchor, that frustration vanished.  　　However, I still had many questions, like, “How durable is it?” “Will the battery pack last a full day of fishing?”...
Woah! A Dangerous Geyser in Yellowstone National Park Erupted Again.
　　On May 31, 2025, a webcam in Yellowstone National Park detected a small explosion in the Biscuit Basin Area—the same zone that suffered an unexpectedly destructive hydrothermal eruption less than a year ago. 　　On July 23, 2024, steam exploded from the ground beneath Black Diamond Pool in the area, destroying a park boardwalk and launching water, mud, rocks, and other...

　　Filson Journeyman Backpack: 50% Off 　　 　　(Photos/Filson) The hardy bags and apparel from Filson are both pricey and popular, so its quite rare to find steep discounts. But you can snag a Filson Journeyman Backpack for half off at the moment, though that still means paying $2380. 　　For lovers of both camo and finely made packs, however, that might be...
The Best Hunting Arrows of 2025
　　Hunting arrows are not a one-size-fits-all piece of gear. Your hunting style, bow setup, and even the species you are hunting need to be taken into consideration when choosing an arrow. 　　The more time I spend behind the bow, the more I have realized how important hunting arrow selection is. With that said, it’s a rabbit hole and a quite...
How a Small Corner of Vermont Is Making Big Waves in the Outdoor Apparel Industry
　　In a 1949 speech in the tiny town of Lyndonville, Vermont, senator George Aiken stated, You know, this is such beautiful country up here. It ought to be called the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont. 　　Aiken was referring to the counties of Orleans, Essex, and Caledonia, situated between Canada to the north, the Green Mountains to the west, and the Connecticut...

The year before that, he podiumed once. Hes coming off a 15-podium streak, having won the FIS crystal globe twice...
Struggling Chrysler Celebrates 100 Years, Looks to the Future With New Design, CEO, and Direction
　　Chrysler? Remember that name? You’d be forgiven if it’s off your radar, even as it’s celebrating its 100th anniversary. What was once a major automaker is today just one of the weakest of 14 brands comprising Stellantis. 　　And that’s raising questions about whether it will survive as a new CEO takes over the Euro-American automaker. If Chrysler does have a...
Horizon Fitness 7.0 AT Treadmill Review: No-Frills Workhorse for Home Training
　　There are three kinds of treadmills: those that show up covered in flashy screens and boast more subscriptions than your streaming services; others that are so wobbly and unstable you feel like youll bust through the platform with each stride; and there are those that just let you run. 　　The Horizon 7.0 AT falls squarely in this last category. And...
