2 hours on the mountain, but well worth it.

And man do I love this car. Too bad it isn't mine :(

As a resident of Mobile Alabama, Huricanes are not a funny topic. Gulf Coast and NOLA allroads are few those of us in this area are not all that thrilled by makeing light of our situation.

there really is a place called hurricane ridge.

Sorry to hear that you had to endure the storm, but be careful about jumping to conclusions!

Troy - glad you and your kid enjoyed your hike and drive.<ul><li><a href="http://www.outdoorplaces.com/Destination/secret/hurricane_ridge/">http://www.outdoorplaces.com/Destination/secret/hurricane_ridge/</a</li></ul>

Port Angeles, unless you can catch a day when you own the road to the top.

I was planning to attend, but me and three other bikes headed east instead thinking that we would stay dry. Well, we got poured on anyway.

300 miles to Wenatchee for lunch and a beer. Fun ride.
