North Cascades Highway
« on: May 22, 2006, 11:41:34 PM »
Just got back from a trip over the North Cascades Highway (#20) in Washington State.  Truely a great road on a motorcycle.  [smiley=xyxthumbs.gif] A little cold up top but all the snow makes for a very scenic ride, and photo's.

Great photos BT,
I just got back from riding the pass into Nelson, BC and they had the same snow [smiley=nixweiss.gif].  Sorry I didn't have my camera to get photos.

Great photos.  ;) Made me homesick.  :(

 I was born in Nanaimo, BC, raised in Saskatchewan and when I was old enough to decide where I would live, I moved to Vancouver, BC.  Isn't it funny how life deals hands? And now I don't even live in Canada at all.  Thanks for posting the pictures.   [smiley=cherry.gif]

Us locals call that ride Sedro Woolley to Winthrop "going over the hump".  Get up in the morning ride about 3 hours have lunch and come back.  Watch for deer coming in to Mazama!!!!!!!!

Mrs. We I have to say that Nanaimo and Vancouver Island is some of the most beautiful area that I've been to.  Of course, Victoria would be the premier spot for me.  And Vancouver is right behind that......another beautiful city.

Some great photos above, too!

"One" of Washington's best rides. An annual must ride for locals, thanks for sharing.  Note it isn't raining [smiley=xyxthumbs.gif]  We do get some sun out here.

If anyone gets through Bellingham on the way to or from, we always have the coffee on at my dealership and you are always welcome.  Roger Jobs Motors, 2200 Iowa Street, Bellingham, WA just east of I-5 from the Iowa Street exit 254.

Look for the Jeep Sign on the right.  Roger

Nice pics,  but you have to educate me a little.   What's all that white sh$t in the backround?????   They look like rocks,  but even here in California I've never seen rocks that white before.....

I think the sign near Mazama was up to 199 deer hit  :o in that part of the valley this year.  Something like 368 is the average so with only five months into 2006 they are above average. Didn't get the exact numbers as I was too busy looking for deer  [smiley=nervous.gif]to take a detailed read of the sign.

You're right, Washington State has more than one must ride road.  Don't get a chance every year to ride them all  :'( but we do make a point of going on this one each year. 8-)

Might take you up on that offer of coffee but it won't be until Sepember on the way to the Oyster Run in Anacortes.
