Oregon is on the Bucket List

[RangerJay]

Oregon has been on our Bucket List for more than a little while - we've been a bit hesitant to tick it off simply because of its fame - we have always worked really hard to be where other's aren't - and Oregon seems one heck of a popular place .... if you saw our "Vacation Map" you'd very quickly see that we've left the busy places of the continent till last ..... maybe not a smart thing but that is what it is ....

.... so .....

.... is a fall trip a doable way of avoiding the crowds? and the traffic?

Our typical fall trip has us leaving home in late August/early September and getting back home somewhere mid-October - this puts us in Oregon for up to a 3 week period beginning mid September.

Advice is really welcome.

Thanks,


Jay

We travel to Oregon about every 2 years and really love it there. I have found it to be fairly scarce of people at any given time.

Thanks for the quick responses and the encouragement - our interests are pretty much shoreline camping, national/state parks, scenic routes/vistas, history, local culture (dinner theatre, festivals), wildlife.

Thanks,

Summer does not officially start in western Oregon until July 5th, so September/October is a good time to visit. October in Central/eastern Oregon can get cold overnight. On the coast October can get wet. Come visit. Let us know some interests and Im sure we can come up with a good itiniary for you.

Almost perfect...We love the Oregon Coast mid September and October. School is in, the heavy crowds are gone and the weather is usually great.

Have a good trip.

Same as the WA coast 🙂
