We left South Beach Campground in Oregon, drove down highway 101 to Florence, Oregon and drove inland to catch Interstate 5. Following the GPS, we were “told” to turn on Territorial Road to go around Eugene, it looked shorter on the map too. Well, it is a great road for the BMW, not so much for the Tundra pulling the Airstream! Although a beautiful country road, it was very narrow, very curvy, and rough in many sections. We kept saying, it’s got to get better, but it didn’t.

Finally we found the freeway and stayed in the Railroad RV park near Dunsmuir, California for the next two nights. It was recommended by our Airstream friends and was a fun stop for a couple nights. We explored Castle Crags State Park the next day.

The next day we drove home taking Interstate 680 around San Francisco, what terribly rough roads! Having traveled 4,600 miles through 8 states, these roads were some of the roughest we encountered. Maybe they will be better next time through!

We’re all cleaned up and ready for Zion National Park, Utah in September. Ari ll worked great except for a couple of gremlins in Cedar Breaks National Monument, it could be the 10,500 ft. Elevation though…
