The Oregon stretch is now open for business!

Not really an "exit", but you turn left onto E Lolo Pass Road just past the Zigzag Mountain Cafe, a little ways past the light in Welches.Nice, what exit do I take off 26? I am from Tigard.
Nice! Looks a lot more interesting than Trail 802, haha. Might have to get back out there sometime soon.I went to the La Dee Flats OHV park yesterday. It’s just south of Estacada, Oregon off Hwy 224. Could only access one trail but it was still fun. They were still mopping up a wildfire that had shut down the area.
What was 802 like?Nice! Looks a lot more interesting than Trail 802, haha. Might have to get back out there sometime soon.
Not really interesting, what I drove of it. Mostly flat, a few mud pits that we avoided (still had the OEM tires and was just out exploring with the wife, so we didn't do anything that might've put us in a position to need any help). There were a couple nice views of the valley and whatnot, but we didn't take it all the way.What was 802 like?
Hmmm. Mud would definitely up the difficulty rating. Some of the bumps looked like you might high center and being my first time out there I avoided some and did others. Next time I’ll probably just take all the hard parts on. Especially if I’m there with someone who can pull me out of a mess or if I have a winch by then. I’m also going to try the rock mound. It looks intimidating but it’s not really that bad.Not really interesting, what I drove of it.

Last time I was out there with @WillRCTID we didn't do any of the trails, but we drove out Abbott Road about as far as the snow would let us. We had a look at 803 but decided not to give it a go.

Great shots!I did 800 again and then 802.
I agree with your assessment that’s it’s mostly flat and aside from the view not a challenge.The first 25 yrds are pretty sketchy. There was a deep rut that had you keeled over to the right. I was holding onto the passenger seat. And a big stump wanting to bash in your right side. Once you get past that it’s just a gravel road but with a great view of the Clackamas River Valley.
I encourage you to do 800. It’s completely the opposite of 802. Your Bronco will get a good workout. If you don’t have belly pans you’ll need to pick your lines carefully.
Started at Staging, 800 begins there. Came out if 800 and turned left, then right to 802. So north.Great shots!
Yeah, no mods here aside from the tires, so careful is my game. We might go back out there before fall, so we'll check out 800.
Which end of 802 did you start on? North or south of the staging area?
Cool. Yeah, when I did it solo, we took the south entry and turned around after we found a little spot to loop around.Started at Staging, 800 begins there. Came out if 800 and turned left, then right to 802. So north.
