| Talked to the Ranger. NF-14 is a go. Its high clearance recommended and they've gotten it opened up from last years storms.

Do you know who was doing the construction or at least what county it was in?

| Tour Announcement Fall Colors of the Nestucca River and Mt Hebo November 1st, 2008 It was only eight months ago that I lead a trip over the Nestucca River. But as fall approached, I decided that a fall colors tour would be a good idea and I knew from past experiences that the colors were usually pretty goog along the Nestucca River. Our tour will start off at the Dutch Bros in Newberg at the West (yes West) end of town (http://tinyurl.com/49t744) Departure by 9am so be there before then. We'll head west to Carlton then start climbing up the hill, pausing or slowing occasionally to take pictures. The road will put us out on the coast at Beaver, where we will stop to eat lunch. After lunch, we head south to Hebo and turn back east and drive to the top of Mt Hebo for more pictures and enjoying the scenery (or weather) The roads to this point are acceptable for all vehicles except perhaps your low-riding sports cars. From the top of Hebo, all 4x4/high clearance vehicles can continue east on NF-14 to Bible Creek rd, which will eventually take us out to Willamina, then back to town. This trip will probably take the whole day and I predict us getting back into town after dark (early evening). Meeting time again is 9am at Dutch Bros at W 3rd and Hwy 99w at the WEST end of Newberg. I'll be in my steel blue cherokee with the Backroad Drivers sticker oh CH 22. Hope to see you there. -Ryan M
