You have no business even opening this thread! Get back into your corner. :)

These are obscure little towns and roads in Oregon that only the locals are allowed to drive.

Sarcasm aside, OR34 is the narrower and curvier of the two.

Pulling the 5er 20 is your best route. I would even consider 22 to 18 and come Dow through Lincoln city.

I guess i don't understand. If you want to go to Waldport, take the 34. If you're going to Newport, take the 20.

What am I missing here???:?

You will be happier going through Newport. I don't even like Waldport road NOT towing!

34 is narrow at times and some sharp corners. one is just before you get to Walport, if you don't slow down you come around the cliff too fast and windup in the left lane, so be careful

We take 34 pulling our Cougar 25rls TT. You don't have to go through downtown Newport that way. A couple of sharp turns, but it is a pretty road.

I have driven the 20 to Newport. It's an OK road.

I think that I would take 20 to Newport, then the 101 south. A little longer, but I like the 101.

Either road, easy tow. Some narrow areas, but not a big deal.
