Barlow
Pass -UNP- 4155ft- the first
historic road over the Cascade Range in
Oregon. Today you can get to the highest
point also with two paved approaches. But
one of the old historic approaches is now
a dirt road. |

Buck
Creek Rd/ Lindy Bridge Rd s(u)

Oregon forest. But I had no idea there
were narrow isolated roads like this one
in the USA |

Buck
Creek Rd via Soup Creek Rd(sh)
-PVD- 1410ft- this is a variation on the
one above. But it reaches a different
summit point, therefore a separate page |

an interesting Oregon forest loop ride |

much of the coast. Trees compensate. |

the traffic free, highest point of a 96
percent paved ride around Mount Hood |

this ride to a high point on Mount Hood,
is the biggest completely paved climb in
Oregon, that I am aware of. |

-PVD- 900ft- another very small, but
inversely proportional scenic climb, next
to the Columbia Gorge |
|
US30
Rowena Crest s(u) -PVD- 740ft-
this is really just a bump in the road.
But a little climbing goes a long way in
the scenery department next to the
Columbia Gorg |
|
|
US101
Cape Foulweather s(u) -PVD-
560ft- a tiny climb on the Pacific Coast
bike route. But if the weather is not
foul, the view is great. |
