Road Trip: Suttle Lake
|
 The Art of Escapism
By Kyla Merwin Cheney
Someone got married at the Lodge at Suttle Lake yesterday. The ceremony was small, short and
sweet, just six people in attendance. Remnants of the nuptials are
scattered in yellow and white petals across the lawn, the only tracks
remaining of an enthusiastic flower girl. The decorated gazebo looks
over Suttle Lake and into the eye of the setting sun, creating the
perfect venue to begin Happily Ever After. Those of us with less weighty pursuits, however, also gather at this
same lake for its beauty, recreational quests, seclusion, and happy
proximity to Sisters, Redmond, and Bend (just 45 minutes from the
latter, yet a million light years away). Speaking of time, Suttle Lake appeared on the land 10,000 years ago,
when a 25,000-year-old glacier melted itself into a mile-an-a-half
long, 75-foot deep, ice-cold puddle. Since then it has been a gathering
place for Native Americans, trappers, wanderers and escape artists -
like us. READ MORE |
