Heading to our sons wedding in July and would like to know what types of road terrain to expect (specifically mountain passes and grades) in order to determine travel times.Plan to take 4 days traveling up to Oregon, 44' diesel pusher towing car, plan to stop near Sacramento, then Bend area, then Cascade Locks. Trying to plan our RETURN trip, we have 4 days and would like suggestions on different places to see on the way home. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Cindy
Depending on where the wedding is, I would not head through the Bend area in the summer time or the east side of Oregon, summer time is hot! But if the wedding is on the east side I would take off from the Cascade Locks on the Columbia river and go west over hyw. 26 over to hwy. 101 near Seaside. Very nice RV park just outside Sideside called Circle Creek. Then start heading south on 101 for a beautiful trip down the Oregon coast. In Calif. I would take Hwy. 20 through Clear Lake back to I-5 then head south. I would stop over night at the Kit Fox RV Park right off I-5 at Patterson. Call in advance for a pull through sight so you don't have to unhook. I would go west on Hwy. 46 over to San Louis Obispo the head south on 101 for some beautiful country. Then take hwy.26 at Ventura east to I-5 at the bottom of the Grape Vine.
