Day 2-Windy Point to Eagle Creek CG, OR-273 miles



This is the second year I have stayed at Eagle Creek so I could do the drive up Larch Mt. Last year I ran out of time and didn't make it but this year three days before leaving I learned Larch Mt. was closed for repaving.

I checked in the morning and the rock columns were still there-



I looped around the top of Naches following a small road along an irrigation canal, east through the valley. Beautiful cherry trees that were loaded with fruit. My cherry at home only produces about two dozen cherries each year-









I came across a small roadside produce stand and scored a bag of the best cherries ever. Fresh picked that morning-



Bought some more valve stems in Yakima for backups. I found the lock nut on the rear wheel sensor was loose also. The tallest building in town, A.E. Larson-



Passed through Mabton on my way to more back roads in the Horse Heaven Hills-



I cut south from Bickleton and came out on the Columbia river near Roovsevelt-
