Oregon's Hidden Gems: Succor Creek & Leslie Gulch

Southeastern Oregon took our breath away! We absolutely loved this adventure to Succor Creek and Leslie Gulch. We had a few surprises with crazy storms, thick mud, close flybys, and the amazing beauty that completely captivated us. You don't want to miss this episode of our Exploring America Series.

If you are interested in wanting to adventure more, the best way to begin is to do a little research, and get out there with what you have. There are plenty of amazing places across this continent that you can go with any vehicle! We started out with a 1998 VW Beetle that was held together with Duck Tape and love, a ten year old leaky tent, and a lot of determination.

Get out there, adventure, and have fun!
