Whenever someone asks us for locations with trees, I laugh a little inside as we have millions of trees, of varying kinds (ponderosas, junipers, aspens and lodgepole pine).  Ponderosas are gorgeous and create really stunning locations due to the striations in their bark.  These images were taken between 2-4pm in mid-February, in Shevlin Park.  There is a road that can be utilized by film crew towards the southern side of the park with a Forest service restroom, and a large parking area.  Permits are required through Bend Park and Rec, at least 30 days in advance.

Point Campground is a small campground on Elk Lake with stunning views of Mt. Bachelor.  Boat launch area and parking for production vehicles.  Campground is surrounded by tall ponderosa’s and pine trees.  Close to Cascade Lakes Highway for easy access.  Also close to Elk Lake Resort (restaurant, boat and kayak rentals and limited supplies including gas).

Images taken early August, late afternoon.   Permit Fees to be paid to Deschutes National Forest with 21 – 30 days advance application.

Cascade Lakes Highway is generally closed from late November to mid-May depending on snow pack. Accessible by snow-cat (through Elk Lake Resort).
