Edgefield is in Troutdale, right???
Have you guys done this drive before? What path do you usually take. I will probably find a hotel to stay in somewhere out there depending on the route we take. I am guessing we will just go out I-84.
kpxguy411 you are in Eugene right?? I could use a reason to drive through the Mckenzie pass over to Eugene(fun drive). If you are going to go, I could meet you in Eugene and we could drive up to Portland from there Let me know.
Meeting place in Portland???
Sorry if I am getting too ahead, but I am like a little kid and his new hotwheel. I have wanted to go for a cruise in the S since I got it I missed the beach drive so I want to make sure I don't miss this one

Sounds like you know the roads so I'm cool with whatever you come up with
True, I-84 is pretty boring, until you go way further out. Is there any good places to stay near Edgefield?

I agree that the freeway would be boring.
Why not take the old scenic highway up to Crown Point and the falls and then head on out the freeway to Hood River.
At Hood River we could cross over the river to Bingen/White Salmon and come back down the river on Washington Hwy 14 to Vancouver.
Or, at Hood River we could take Hwy 35 to Mt. Hood and return on Hwy 26.
If you wanted to make a longer drive, we could cross over to Hwy 14 at Hood River and travel East on Hwy. 14. Near Maryhill is the Stonehenge replica which might make for an interesting photo-op.
