We'll be heading to McMinnville from Pacific City and hwy 130 seems to be closed to thru traffic, sooo it looks as if the shortest route is up to Hebo and take 22. That section of 22 is one of the few...
As mentioned, very crooked!! Another negative (esp on weekends) is lots of bicycle traffic. Occasional races, and they don't shut down the hwy!! Friends live outside of Valley Junction, and more than once have almost taken out riders on the curves. Something to watch out for.
