Susanville, CA to Bend, OR

Thanks for all the helpful info. Betsy.

Thanks Y-Guy. That old thread is very helpful.

If you take 139, stop in Adin at the general store -- great sandwiches.

Janss, This thread from 2013 might help a bit as suggested in that thread here is a search for susanville

Hope you don't mind me adding on a question. Some years ago I drove this route. From Susanville I took 395 to Alturas, then 299 over to 139. Is there any problem with 139 between Susanville to Canby? Seems like I was advised not to drive that section of 139, but maybe there was construction or a fire that year (I can't remember).

This!^^^^^^^^

I agree with Y-Guy.

Bit of a toss up, but I'd take Hwy 139 to KFalls, Hwy 97 out of KF to Bend is an easy drive but a bit boring till you meet up around Hwy 58.
