In this installment, Lillian and Prakruti travel through Oregon’s remote north Lake County, reaching the isolated town of Christmas Valley. The duo navigates the sparsely populated region with the help of Lake County Transit, which operates on a flexible, by-request system, catering to locals who rely on these services for medical trips, groceries and social interaction. With long stretches of empty terrain and few services, this leg of the journey underscores the importance of rural transit in connecting people and essential services.
