So excited to have a few days of riding coming up. Worked it so this wedding I gotta go will be a solo trip down to hood river and back.

Gonna go east and south over the cascades into the Columbia basin and ride the valley on the Oregon side.

On the way back, I will either go west and north through Mt. Saint Helens, or further west up and through Olympia.

Base route is 450 miles/725km round trip. If I can roll up to the observation point on Saint Helens, that would crank it up a bit.

@leerayl There was a landslide on WA-504 back in 2023 that won't be fully fixed until 2026, so the road up to Johnson Ridge Observatory is closed. Can't really get up to the part of Mt. St. Helens that you'd want to get to, I think.

@bradwilson that’s the 4th road closure I have heard about this week.

Some stuff on the pnwriders subreddit on hwy 20 closures and a few others for fires.

Good thing I got some time to plan.
