We did part of the Cascade loop last August and ended up in Leavenworth, and a few other people (Gina, Nancy, Robb & Katherine, etc) just went straight to Leavenworth on 2. Leavenworth is a social outing, not a drive.

Size of the group. Some of the Portland drives were 30+ cars last year, so you get two factors... the first is that you have severely disproportionate skill levels and you end up with novice drivers right behind very good drivers and they get in over their heads. The second is that the back end of the line accordions out and has to drive much faster than the front of the line to keep up. A lot of drive leaders never quite figure that out.

What exactly is "The Cascade Loop"? It's not like there is only one option.

I seem to have Googled an answer to my own question: http://www.cascadeloop.com/

Seems like some sort of marketing scheme to me. Oh well, those store owners in Winthrop and Marblemount and Wenatchee need to get people to stop by somehow.

It's a nice drive. Not really technical, but fairly scenic, and all the roads are in good shape. There may be better variants but I don't know them right now.

I need to see if they're still good. With my luck the power will probably go out again.
