Need to pick up a few things? Groceries, hardware, and even a “selection of
Indian crafts from all across America” are all available at the strip-mallish
south end of Republic that finishes this piece of Hwy 20. But before you start
wishing you’d brought your SUV, try filling your cart at the superstore of
Twistiness, Pavement, Engineering and Scenery either side of the dramatic
Sherman Pass. Despite the everything-must-go foliage clearance that occurred
during the huge 1988 White Mountain Fire, the bleak landscape near the summit
is actually a welcome contrast to the heavy forest that covers the rest of the
road. And though there aren’t as quite as many curves in stock on the eastern
third as the western two-thirds, you’ll still arrive at Kettle Falls a
satisfied customer. We guarantee it.
"This area, with
it's high desert scenery, low traffic, and small towns is a must-ride
every summer. You can set up camp nearby and spend a few days riding them
all ! The high pass in this one in particular is worth it." --Horst
