US Northwest The Owyhees

[Jane and Sergio]

This is a 5-day exploration trip for me. I've never been, and the tentative route and POIs are below. I'll be having a meet-and-greet on July 12 in Coos Bay.

This sounds quite interesting. I’m rolling a lifted Subi Crosstrek but no armor. I’ve done some rock crawling to a point but not sure if this may be more than she’s built for. I’m also a HAM tho and would love to meet up sometime. I live just east of Salem. I might come up just for the pre-meet and say howdy:) KG7DBA out.

Thanks Kent. I'll be doing a Utah/Colorado trip with the family at that time. Sounds like fun, though!

Depending on the route, you may struggle. There are some very difficult roads out there. I've driven many of them.

Nice! I'm planning a similar route down from Spokane in September. I highly suggest making time to stop and camp at the Alvord Desert. it's a giant playa you can drive out on. and with the Steens Mountains in the background it's gorgeous (also one of the darkest sections of the US so star gazing is epic on a clear night)
I have several POI's you're traveling near and can send them to you.
Fuel is very limited so plan for that, and if wet the mud is SERIOUS, but in Aug it'll more than likely be SUPER dry and Dusty (Highly recommend Amber dust lights mounted High if traveling in a group as the dust can hang forever and make a car disappear 5' in front of you even with brake lights on.)

Appreciate the input and warning I definitely know I’ve got real limits and we’ll add this one to “yaaaaa prolly not…mmmkaaayy” ?
