Are we going again this year?

Hey Greg, great to hear from you. Hope you and your family are well.

I'm headed out to work on the road and explore Oregon, Nevada, and California deserts. I'll be driving for long days, working some from the car and from the road where wifi allows, and seeking clear dark sky camping locations to set up telescopes in the evening.View Rally Point

That's so cool Paul! Great article -- I'm proud to have wheeled with you!

@M Rose, no one responded that they could go and I was not sure I'd be at the meeting place at noon is I thought I'd better cancel just in case someone tried to meet up with me that didn't RSVP. It was my first rally point. Is there a better way to do it?

Also, I agree about the fuel. It should not be an issue for this trip I just want folks to think it over. I'll have 5 gallons is we need it so should be no problem.

I'd love to do it again with this group as well.

Hey Tyler, don't let that stop you. With a small group it should be no problem. We'll figure something out.

We're going to run most all of the roads mentioned in the linked article other than Bennett Pass. I'll work on putting together a gpx.

A one or two day exploration of some of the best trails around Mt. Hood

I'm going to explore FR4636 between little Cultus Lake and Waldo Lake. What other sweet trails are in the area I should know about? Any great cascade lakes suggestions are welcome! Thanks

My first preference would be to have a longer drive on Monday. That said I'm planning to be super flexible and I'll be having fun regardless of where we stop.

The dog's name is Twiggy. She may not join us after all -- probably be a game time decision.

I'm up for a conference call on Wed. Let me know what times you're thinking. I'm free between 8:30am-10am, and after 2pm until 5:30. I could also call in anytime after 6:30pm. Thanks for taking the lead on this trip fellas.
