- LaurenExplorerThank you - that is the kinda info I wanted and needed.
Why I love this Forum!
Is the 90 miles about right?
And I might even figure out what Francesca said -- eh, kinda doubt it! :-) - diazr2Explorer213 is all stop and go. Big old pain in the butt. 214 much better.
- It has been a long time since I used OR 213. Memory serves it is not the best in Oregon City. It got relocated a while back so it doesn't go into downtown Oregon City.
Time wise OR 214 would be better. - LaurenExplorerYeh - 10-2 is best for any city --- practice that for sure with Phoenix (a real zoo) and Salt Lake City (a semi zoo now that the construction is done with.
Google says preferred is the 213 to the I-205 to the I-5.
Is that better than the 214?
Keeping in mind we have this 5th wheel VERY close behind us! :-)
Someone had said it was 200 miles but Google says about 90; think I will go with Google on that one! - Go over to I-5 on OR 214, north to I-205 to go around Portland and come back onto I-5 North of Vancouver.
Watch time of day. Try to hit Portland between 10 AM and 2 PM - diazr2ExplorerIf you like going through cities go 5 if you want to skirt the city take the 205. Portland is a very hectic place to drive, with that said I always go through the city LOL... Gets your heart pumping for sure.
- Francesca_KnowlExplorer????????????
You're in the corridor- I-5 from Silverton/Salem to Vancouver to Kelso.
