...Tollgate...

   Up in the mountains of Eastern Oregon is a beautiful area known as Tollgate.  This is where our family cabin has been for over 50 years.  The cabin sits in a forest of tall fir trees, next to a clear, high mountain lake.  We have spent many days and nights in this gorgeous spot.

Introducing Tollgate:




   Tollgate was designed with the idea that it can be worn instead of a jacket if the weather is slightly cool, or as an additional layer when it turns colder.    It’s the perfect accessory for a walk on a cool, autumn day.
