Hi folks, I'm planning a 3-5 day trip into the wastelands of SE Oregon. Having done OBDR Route 4 last year and dabbled with a few routes in the meantime, I've got a few goals in mind for this trip: Maximize off-road/dirt time, even if it's obviously less efficient than paved routes. Bias...

Hey all! New to OB and just curious if anyone is in my area. Feel free to drop a line or PM.

We'll meet at the Peter Iredale shipwreck and spend the morning on the longest drivable beach in Oregon, from Warrenton to Gearhart. The drive is rated easy, so it's great for beginners. We'll head down to Sand Lake and play on the dunes in the afternoon. View Rally Point Details
