Unfortunately, birder passed away in May of 2015. I have assumed ownership of all his boxes and the clues listed at AtlasQuest and LBNA. I will appreciate help maintaining the boxes and receiving detailed remarks about the condition of the boxes so I can keep the clues up to date. Contact me (Calli-K) via either AQ or LBNA.

Directions


Gray Butte is located on the Crooked River Grasslands northeast of Terrebonne. It is a mostly dry juniper-sage area so where there is water birds tend to gather. These boxes are located near water troughs. The first area is used by cattle so the area is pretty trampled at some times of the year but, the birds come to the water anyway. There are are also some interesting rock formations in the area. More boxes may be added to this series in the future.

To get there: Turn east on B street in Terrebonne. Stay on that road until you come to a T. At the T turn left. Soon after you cross the Jefferson County line look for the Skull Hollow campground sign. Turn left on the dirt road. Ignore any roads to the left. At Road 57 take a left. When you come to several large Poplar trees, stay on the road you are on and keep to the right at all intersections. Watch for another tire watering trough on the right. When you see it park near the trough.
