US26 climbs to the south flank of Mt Hood - with a side road to the ski lodge. OR35 then drops down to river level on the east side. Besides mountain bound traffic, 26 is a major highway from the Portland area to the east side of the Cascades. So it is well traveled, with 3 or 4 lanes in many places. 35 is good 2 lane. Neither is particularly twisty or steep.
Other than being longer than I84, it also misses the waterfalls along the Gorge. But the route is scenic in its own right.
