Our next ride will be…

WHEN: Saturday, March 14th

WHERE: Crooked Finger OHV Area

We will be meeting at the staging area at 9am.

We'll have BBQ you can use at lunch time if you'd like to roast a dog or two!

THIS IS IMPORTANT…. The following directions will get you to the riding area – DON’T try and get there by mapping it on the internet or you will get lost.

Directions from the north:
From Interstates 5 take the Woodburn exit. Turn left at the first stop. Follow this road about 2 miles to Hwy 99. Turn right on Hwy 99 and drive about 2 miles. Turn left on Hwy 214 to Silverton / Mt. Angel. When you get to Mt. Angel, watch for the signs directing to Scotts Mills. Turn left and follow the signs to Scotts Mills. When you get to Scotts Mills, turn right on Crooked Finger Road and drive exactly 9 miles. Look for our sign on the right.

Directions from the Salem Area:
If traveling I5 coming North, take the Keubler Exit. Turn right onto Keubler at the stop, take Keubler 7 - 8 miles to Hwy 213.) From Salem take Silverton Road (Hwy 213) to Silverton. Follow the signs through Silverton to Hwy 213 towards Molalla/Oregon City. Follow 213 about 6 miles out of Silverton turn right at the Scotts Mills turn -off (MT. Angel/Scotts Mills Hwy.) Follow Mt. Angel/Scotts Mills Hwy 3 miles into Scotts Mills. Turn right onto Crooked Finger Road. Follow Crooked Finger exactly 9 miles to our entrance on the right.

It would be great if you let us know you are going to ride with us so we know who to look for.

Well, snow...you gotta love it. I know I do, but it can be a real block to our riding!!

We're deliberating on an alternate location so stay tuned, or shout out your ideas!

Okay, the BOD has decided to wait until Wednesday to make the official call, but here's what we're thinking:

If the snow is not too bad, we'll go to the Trask...

If the snow is too bad, we'll cancel the Ride.

Projections are for UP TO 9" of snow accumulation in the Trask through Wednesday but the weather improves for the next three days.

Remember, we will try to get info and make the call on Wednesday!
