Pro File: Lizzy Van Patten, Climber

She climbs, she plays piano and She Moves Mountains
Like many who grew up in the Pacific Northwest, Lizzy Van Patten was exposed to the outdoors through hiking and camping. While attending school in Washington state, she came across a book on hiking routes.
I was a math and political science major, and thought it a cool idea to do 25 of the (recommended) routes by my 25th birthday, recalls Van Patten. On one such hike she saw Mt. Baker up close for the first time. I was immediately inspired by it, she said. After watching the movie, 180 South, about adventuring in Patagonia, she set her sights on climbing. ....

When Stevens opened the center in 1996, Bend was a one-brewery ski town. Today, there’s a yoga studio on every corner and a growing community of spiritual seekers that regularly gather to engage with Eastern religions and philosophy. With the rise of Zoom and social distancing due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Stevens now leads Sadhanas (or meditation groups) online for people in Central Oregon and those who live in other areas up and down the West Coast. Stevens told the
Source he was initially very resistant to the technology as the some of the energetic aspects of the group practice are lost, but Zoom has also helped grow the community. ....

'Take What You Need, Give What You Can'

Bend Community Fridge aims to fight food insecurity and food waste one fridge at a time
Amid rising food insecurity due to the pandemic, one grassroots effort has gained momentum: free food refrigerators, or freedges. In public spaces from New York to Los Angeles to Portland, these community fridges have sprung up, and soon Bend will join the club.
We re helping fight food waste along with food insecurity, explained Carolyn Abernethy, 22, who launched the Bend Community Fridge project in January. The fridges, which function much like a tiny free library, are run by the motto, Take what you need, give what you can. ....

Letters to the Editor 2/25/21

Better days, inequities in our democracy, removing dams & focus on your health
Editor s note:
Last year, just days after Oregon got its first reported cases of COVID-19, I put an offer on a house in the Orchard District. As a first-time homebuyer, it felt crazy to do so at that time and people tried to talk me out of it but as we ve seen over this past year, 2020 did not bring a real estate crash like other calamities have wrought on Bend in recent memory. Now, seeing homes get snapped up sight unseen or for much more than they were a year ago, I feel like one of the lucky ones, to the extreme. ....

Neighborhoods: The Allure of Awbrey Butte

Stunning sunsets, panoramic mountain views, twinkling city lights
Awbrey Butte evokes images of stunning sunsets, panoramic mountain views, twinkling city lights, colorful sunrises, towering ponderosas and roaming deer, to name a few. Living there feels more about the environment and the surroundings rather than the actual house. Nature surrounds you, creating a sense of peace and allowing one some solitude if needed. It seldom feels crowded. It is hard not to love this neighborhood, and if you happen to move here, there s a good chance you ll stay for a long time.
Awbrey Butte, once known as Awbrey Heights, was named after a legendary Bend pioneer named Marshall Clay Awbrey. Awbrey was a Missourian who fought in the Mexican War and who settled in Bend around 1870. He farmed the areas where Harmon Park and Kenwood School are located today before moving to the Tumalo area. It was said he would kiss a 5- or 10-piece coin goodbye before handing it to a clerk. Many ....
