At a Glance

“Caution: Horse Drawn Vehicles” reads the sign in the Camas Valley, just as another points you off the road to an “In House Bakery”. Yet another offers “Quilts, Rugs and Leather Goods”. Whether or not you have any interest in Amish krispy kremes or leathers without worldly zippers or snaps, this road offers plenty of other wares to pique your curiosity. Sporting well-distributed Twistiness, good Pavement and Engineering, and the pastoral Remoteness that comes from being a connector between two tiny towns, this DH goes up one creek bed and down another as it passes over the southern edge of the Huckleberry Mountains. While the best section is undoubtedly the tightly wound forested climb to the summit from the western side, you’re rarely far from one of the many easy curves, even when the road spans farmland at either end. As this ride offers a little of everything a motorcyclist desires, perhaps the pylons should get a further warning: “Caution: Two-wheeled, Horse-Powered Vehicles”.
