Just over 8.5 miles east (still on 206) of the intersection of 206 and the John Day River, you will find a mountain overlook and identifier. .07 miles east from the Mountain Identifier is Ajax Lane. Make a right and pull into a wide spot on the right hand side just past the turn. This has been a good spot for Sage Thrasher.
