    These VFRs are pieces of crap. They don't last worth a shit. And white wheels suck..

    Welcome to the World BTW. But seriously though. Eastern Washington and Oregon have to have some of the best roads for exciting rides. Myself and three others go on an annual few day trip on the second weekend in September every year. Seems this year won't happen for many reasons but we will be picking it up again next year.

    Maybe some day our paths will cross.

    Welcome Donovan

    Wind River Rd?

    Where's the entry and exit points? Looks like it keeps connecting with other roads heading way north.

    I can't believe you have not ridden up the east side of St Helen's considering where you live. That is really a ride to behold.

    SW Washington, starting at the bottom in Carson Wa. on the Columbia River. One heads north up Wind River Rd. which pretty much ends at Old man pass, but go another couple miles you make a left on Curly creek Rd. Which winds its way over to NF 90 which heads on over to FS25, which now is the road a lot of folks talk about that runs up past the east side of St. Helens. 25 ends or starts at Randle Wa. Hwy 12. From there you have a couple options, head east on 12 taking one over white pass. that's if you don't make a left in Packwood heading north on Skate creek Rd. which will land you on 706 a few miles east of Ashford and only a few to Mt.Rainier. Back at Randle if one was to make a left on 12, you could head west to Morton then take hwy 7 north back to Tacoma, whic BTW is a hoot. or stay on 12 back to I5 Pfff. Hope that help explains. FWIW heres a short on Curly creek I did a while back. https://vimeo.com/1272290
