Willamette Valley View

 
Kathy and I spent the day today in our car pre-running the 100 mile course set for the Bike MS event this coming Saturday.
I must say the course it’s a bit daunting, but a very beautiful ride.
The daunting part is a 12 mile long hill up to Silver Falls State Park.
The reward is a view across the Willamette Valley over to the Coast Range about 30 miles away from about 1,300 feet up in the Cascades foot hills.
I look forward to doing the ride and seeing this view again in four days.



PS:  The “crop” in the foreground is “Christmas Trees”.
