Sunny in PDX -- at least this weekend. Throttled myself riding around the West Hills on Saturday and doing endless yard work, then my brother rolled in to town and wanted to go for a ride.

Mushed out the Gorge Highway and up Larch Mountain Road -- that same old 14.5 mile climb I've written about befo http://tinyurl.com/muafs5e The gate was still closed, but there was no snow until about 300 meters from the top, so we were car-free for about five miles of climbing.

It was f'n cold at the top, and I was freezing on the way down, even in a jacket.

Wow. Nice looking place to ride.



Reminds me of http://tinyurl.com/nr8tsbu



It's not jaw-dropping like the North Cascades or Rockies or the Sierra, but the Gorge is pretty -- and its near town (after a crappy ride through east county), and it's very atmospheric. I like to ride along the Washington side http://tinyurl.com/oymdsw4, go past Bonneville Dam http://tinyurl.com/ooypfnc

and then come back past the falls on the Oregon side: http://tinyurl.com/q5aa9wx



Oregon doesn't have the drama of Yosemite or the Grand Canyon. We have mountains and beaches, but compared to California, they're like road-side attractions. Oregon has small wonders. The state is like a box of bon-bons -- with half the box empty. http://tinyurl.com/l3ywd2k

Another Gorge ride today. Blue skies and a little chilly in the morning, but somewhat warmer (high 60s) by noon. Rode past all the falls out towards Cascade Locks. http://www.grindtv.com/outdoor/outpo...a-river-gorge/ Nice spray off Horsetail.

My buddy and I took the new bike trail that links together old portions of the Gorge highway and keeps you off the interstate. It was awesome -- this odd ride in to the past on Model-T sized road with the old parapets and mossy stack rock walls. It was like the land that time forgot. http://www.columbian.com/news/2013/s...y-state-trail/ (new)

You're riding around on a mountain side with the interstate below.
http://s3-media4.ak.yelpcdn.com/bpho...gtvwGqFQ/l.jpg
It really made me smile.

So, does that completely eliminate riding the freeway? I remember doing
many miles on that freeway, into fierce headwinds. It was noisy and
ugly, but there was no alternative - well, except for the Washington
side, but I had no hint that it would be better.

We were really glad to get off the freeway and onto the old gorge
highway. Even though, as I recall, we had to carry our fully-loaded
bikes up three flights of concrete stairs to reach it.


Back past the falls and up the climb to Vista House.
http://s3-media3.ak.yelpcdn.com/bpho...LjIyIpjw/l.jpg

Screw the cyclometer. It was ten trillion miles!

Ah, but the view!

Coming in from the east, the climb to Vista House looked fearsome, with
the road visibly winding up through switchback after switchback. But we
down-down-downshifted and took it slow, and it wasn't bad. It all
depends on your pace, I think.

Yes, no more freeway riding between Warrendale and Cascade Locks. East of Cascade Locks, I think there there are some sections still missing near Hood River -- but otherwise, you can go out past The Dalles. http://www.columbiariverhighway.com/...e_bike_map.pdf

Rowena Crest and the tunnels out here are popular spots. http://columbiariverimages.com/Image...crest_2005.jpg

The new trail is a mix of the old highway and new construction and an old bike trail they've had near Cascade Locks for probably ten years. It's a lot slower than the highway but way more atmospheric.

We were really glad to get off the freeway and onto the old gorge

highway. Even though, as I recall, we had to carry our fully-loaded

At the end of a hard day, the climb to Vista House is tiring, but in real terms, its not very bad -- probably less than a thousand feet of climbing.

By the way, the Washington side (Highway 14) going east from Portland is really beautiful past Camas -- good shoulder, great views down the Gorge. http://www.panoramio.com/photo/43279110

Oddly enough, though, the shoulder on the other side -- going west -- sucks.. It's like a one-way highway for cyclists. I cross over and come back on the Oregon side past the falls. Yesterday was great riding in the morning, but by afternoon, the Easter car-crowd had shown up, and the old highway was miserable between Multnomah Falls and Crown Point. I always wonder why people who want to go fast take the scenic highway rather than getting out on to HWY 84.

By the way, the linked .pdf map is old, and the new section between Warrendale and Cascade Locks is not shown. That was opened last year. This map shows the new section -- and the gap out to Hood River. http://www.portlandoregon.gov/shared....cfm?id=322056

I'll check on riding 9 on the Hudson....

The Gorge is sooooo greeeeen but noisey. Parking my rig in front of the Ranger's is necessary.

Grand Coulee is AAA. Take 174 down to 2 then back to the Rivah

REI came up with a guide during the last buy trip....from THE MOUNTAINEERS pub ISBN 0-89886-413-5....

a surprise as from the Diablow side, I had not bike response outside the tracks to Concrete, again - noisy with exception of Cape Horn thereabouts and west a bit.

but the guide to NORTH CASCADES lays it out.

tho if I could get my back up I'd try the Backpuckers' copper mine route for a few days.

Haven't gone thru the book yet....anything out of the Loomis area ? Is there a website for these areas ?

It's only noisy some times: http://tinyurl.com/kvo7egz

The UP will run this past the Falls now and then. http://tinyurl.com/lf9gwne

Cape Horn is up on the hillside -- although you can still see the BNSF trains. http://tinyurl.com/l6mokgl http://tinyurl.com/lj9w845

The road is cut in to those rocks. http://tinyurl.com/k593tt3 I tend to take the lane. Noise is usually traffic -- light traffic from the west, and it's downhill and not dramatic, but I did like the shot of that giant truck.

Sorry about all the train shots. I'm channeling Jobst.

wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

Haven't seen a bicycle out here. Rough ride, 3-4 ridges, Pro Rally Commuters. California Ethereal.

The ridge below has a terrific updraft. The hill, Cape Mendocino is the last land/sea position of the west coast earthquake faults and a harrier refuge.

Harriers float over the fields looking for rodents often almost directly overhead.
