We took the camper to Mount St. Helens last week (first time ever visiting even though we have lived in WA state nearly 20 years).
We stayed at the Lower Falls campground on Lewis river. This is a great time of year to go as we had the entire campground to ourselves the first night. The falls are about a 2 minute walk from the camp site we chose.
We unloaded the motorcycles and rode them up FS road 25 then 90 to the Helens crater. This is a very good motorcycle ride and the day was a sunny 65 degrees.
On the way back from Helens we decided to take a detour to the WA coast since we were relatively close to Long Beach, WA. We ended up staying two nights on the beach at the Cape Disappointment state park and rode our motorcycles some 20 miles up the beach.
The camper/truck did quite well on the bumps (even got it on some dirt and gravel going to Lower Falls) and averaged 10mpg which made me pleased. The propane cage we added under the truck (holds three 20 pound cylinders) let us use the furnace and stove on this trip. We didn't run the furnace much because the camper seems to stay warm in this milder season (2 inches of wall insulation paying off).
