Aye. My GF is going to drive up as well and either walk or ride from the closest place to park. The rest of us will be riding from the parking lot near the grocery store.

Despite falling this morning, I totally intend to do this trip sans-cast this time.

That's my blog post for last time we went up incidentally.

Hrm... this requires less driving than la push . color me interested. What's the mileage like from the girl friendly starting point?

by **tehschkott** » Mon May 18, 2009 2:42 pm

Pretty short if they drive up as far as they can. I want to say 7-9 miles?

Just keep in mind it is Memorial Day Weekend. I can and will stay if there is a second party that wants to come up, but I don't know how busy it'll be up there and can't hold onto empty camp sites for long. Thats my only real concern. So if this is going to happen, someone needs to step up as ride leader and coordinate the second party.

eh - for the sake of simplicity, we're going up Saturday and coming back Sunday. End of story. If you'd like to come with, it's very pretty and we'd like the company. If you can't make it this time there are going to be other bike camping trips this summer, don't worry.

Hey guys,

The campground you are planning to go it is off Forest Road # 26, right?

If so, it says it is closed due to flood damage on the NPS web site.

That road is - Forest Road. The bridge is washed out - but the route we're taking on NF-26, a smidgen north of that, off the Sauk Valley Road isn't.

Thats where it's washed out.

There are a couple pieces of the route that look like this for a brief second

Which make it unpassable for cars but just fine for bikes. I'd be inclined to take a drive up after work if someone wanted to come with.
