Have you heard of BENDOREGON? No? Neither had I. Sometimes I think constructors like to set little challenges for themselves like this - to try to fit all the letters of "Oregon" into cramped spaces and then find fill that works. The contorted state name appears seven times, highlighted by circles. Impressive.
Favorite clue: "Mount with four faces that all face southeast" (RUSHMORE). Nice. "Permanent location?" (SALON) is also nice. Does anyone say "permanent" anymore?
I don't love "prior to now" for AGO. Just seems weird. "Some fins" (DORSALS) is bad in a different way.
BOP (Catchy song, in modern lingo) and "What's touch and go?" (TAG) were fun, "Quiet sound?" (SHH) too ... and who knew Erik Estrada was a POLICEMAN in real life?
