McKenzie Hwy - By MotoForever

Cars tend to let you pass quickly. The lookout point at the summit is nice and you can see far when the weather permits (typical). There are volcanic rocks to tall tree forests. You'll curve thru the rocks as well as thru trees. Watch for occasional gravel that was kicked up on tight turns, but for the most part, this road is in great condition. There are people camping and hiking on the west side, but the signs are clear and give ample warning. Two up can be tricky on a couple of tight switchback turns, but don't sweat it. I rate this as easy to slightly intermediate when two up. We went thru in early June and glad that the road was open. It can be closed for snow thru mid June.
