Access to Caves from Cave Junction, OR

Hey All,

So now that I've been there (without the RV), let me answer my own question:

NO WAY!! I've been pulling our 5r for 12 years and I am very comfortable on mountain/winding roads and this would have been very challenging; there are multiple switchbacks that are posted at 15 MPH and they are not kidding! I'm really not sure my 30' 5r would make one or two of these. But perhaps more importantly, there are several places where taller vehicles would take paint damage due to low branches and other poor clearance issues. And once you got there, the lot is pretty small and there isn't any designated RV parking.

So my advice to anyone who finds this posting through future searches is, if your rig is longer than 25' and/or taller than maybe 10', I * STRONGLY* discourage taking an RV up this road.

Seriously, just don't.

Yea, I was going to say what all the others said - there's very little area to park an RV once you're up at the Monument, and LOTS of folks walking around (no sidewalks, so people use the road to walk on), full parking lots, etc.

yep, no way would i drive any RV past the Grayback CG.
don't know what to tell someone with a MH and no toad.
maybe "thumb it" to the Monument.;)

by the way, the Lodge there, is a wonder.

Here is from the Oregon Caves website

RV and trailer information

Any recommendations for motorhomes without a toad?

That's exactly what I needed to know - we'll leave the 5r at camp and just take the truck.

Thanks!

I think you would be very sorry to take your 5ver up there. Road is narrow plus parking lot is not that big. Also....ya just might take up a lot of room at the parking lot which stops a lot of other cars from parking there.
