Dave is a bit busy right now, so I'm going to take the torch and see if there is interest in a repeat of last year's run.
The date can be a bit tricky... October 10th would be the "same" day as last year, which worked out good with the weather, but the leaves were not really turning yet. The catch is, the later we wait, the less likely we are to have nice weather. So... I'm open for suggestions as to the date. My 914 is still in pieces, so I won't have mine there... I'll either drive my truck as a support vehicle, or bum a ride in a teener. |

I am looking at changing the route depending on weather/snow up on Mt Hood.
I have an alternate route out the gorge cross at bridge of the gods. Then up to Glenwood then east round through Glenwood canyon and down along the Kickitat river. very curvy and would get us out of the rain faster and into eastern WA/OR quicker. Little shorter but still ends up at that Porsche shop. Then we can cruise the Columbia Historic Hwy on the way back for those that want to. Those that are in a hurry can rip back on the Fwy. We'll just wait and see what the weather is like. |

I know I don't have much experience driving a teener in snow or ice. |
