Can you folks steer us to the best places out there to visit, considering that we favor wildlife and scenery. We've been to all the major things in Montana, The Dakotas, Wyoming, Colorado, Utah, and Arizona, and wondering if Oregon and Washington would be worth going the extra distance.
Traveling in a 32 foot fiver so we will be limited to rv parks with big enough spaces.
Thanks

Yes, it's worth the extra distance!
The Oregon coast has scenery. You should fit in most full hookup sites in state parks. Keep in mind that the coast sites book up very early. You can book them 9 months in advance on ReserveAmerica.
Central & Eastern Oregon have wildlife & more spectacular scenery.
Look at Steens Mountain Resort in French Glen http://www.steensresort.com/index.html. You are next door to a wildlife refuge and wild horses and the Alvord Desert. The Painted Hills west of John Day are spectacular. You'll need to find a site and make a day trip of it. Go to the Wallowa's in northeast Oregon.
You can easily spend a month. We've been camping in state parks in Oregon for 40+ years and haven't seen them all yet.
