Yeah it does look good, doesnt it. On the list for sometime in the next couple of years for me!

Those pictures make it look amazing (didn't know this existed)

I have a plan ... all the planets of the universe would need to align, at the same time hell freezes over, BUT I have a plan

Now that would be an ambitious 50th expedition in a couple of years. SWMBO has already okayed the expedition idea, I just think she was thinking of something a tad shorter (and closer). I have friends in the Portland area and in NorCal so logistics could work. Food for thought.

I've been camping at Crater Lake (35 miles or so SW of Chemult at the end of the Fremont tier) in June and I remember that as being cold with pockets of snow in gullys so there's probably a narrow window where you have minimal snow and even narrower window for dry trails. I think it rains in Oregon even more than Wales.

Rode around crater lake 2 yrs ago what a stunning area, oh and we had no rain in Oregon for 2 weeks we were there. Maybe we were lucky

To be fair my trip to crater lake was pretty much glorious sunshine - every other trip to Oregon and the Portland area was wet though

Yeah OK, when?

Looks like a cracking route, interested in riding it

Was reading / watching this at lunch time - looks good, must get over the old US and do some stuff like this before I fall off my perch

Yeah OK, when?

Best I could say thus far is - next year.

Next year suits me, I'll get flights booked

Ohhh Yess

Fingers crossed we get to see loads of cougars

Your mind is in the gutter!!!

That looks loads more fun than riding to Mexico again; will do some looking into it for sure - thanks for sharing it.

Ooh that looks amazing... Not convinced I could get enough time off though...

Will keep an eye on this thread...

Take plenty mozzy repellent.......
