Best Roads in the Northwest

[erik]

I took a drive down to Costco today and then came back up Spiral Highway (Spiral Rd., Lewiston ID) which inspired me to create a thread encompassing some of the best roads in the Northwest.

Here are my top 3:
1. Highway 9 to Mt. Baker
2. Spiral Rd.
3. That one road in Postfalls, ID that parallels I-90 but goes off into the trees and winds through the hills.

What are some of your favorite roads in the Northwest?

[Nate]

We should make a Chuckenut run on that Friday or Saturday with you.

ya dustin and I are always looking for more people to go cruise up that road with, but it sucks we went to go up it and its shut-down cause the rockslides..

[eliteautosport.net]

Sorry. My exhaust set those off :lol:

Favorites:
The Schweitzer access road. Nine switchbacks.

Glacier National Park's Going To The Sun Road is like an hour of twisties.

The road around Hayden Lake was so twisty, I was tired of steering. Google East Hayden Lake Rd. It looks like a rally road. We could lure Ken Block here, with that road.

Fernan Lake Road (Sherman turns into it, in Cd'A) is a blast, if your exhaust sounds cool. Google Fernan Lake Rd.

[justin]

highway 20 going east is pretty fun too.

[pinksuby20]

I didnt know there were cool roads in stanwood, have to check that out..

[justin]

ya I know a few. They aren't any sort of secret but they're pretty fun, anyone from around here know about them really

[Milanored92hatch]

normand and miller road in stanwood very tight corners.

[justin]

Weres "silvana terrace" ?

[justin]

between warm beach and silvana

[pinksuby20]

fun, we will have to go and try those..

[Milanored92hatch]

they are really tight through a housing development

[justin]

ya but you could easily still go thru it

[eliteautosport.net]

is there lots of cops around there ?

[Papercut]

I like the road from CDA to Worley... It is quite a fun drive, though not as much since they expanded and changed the road... On the old road, I made it to Worley in 12 mins. 130 MPH :D

[justin]

is there lots of cops around there ?

no but at the same time its not a road you could just up and run all the time. people would get wise fast there. its a everyone once in a while thing

[eliteautosport.net]

yea i wouldent

That road is awesome, but, there has been too many cops on it when I go through there.

And once you hit the reservation, you are on a sovereign nation's turf. What if the officer decides that the penalty for speeding is seizing your car and stringing you up, like "A Man Called Horse"?

[pinksuby20]

ya kinda random but they put a stupid pointless round about right before the burlington blvd bridge... But the drive up bellingham to baker that way is nice..

[JDMJonny]

Even tho i just got a ticket there my favorite drive is going down to Higgins point and back up. that road a 70 plus is just exhilarating!

[pinksuby20]

well dont know where higgens point is but it sounds fun.. i like ou r roads out here...

[Milanored92hatch]

where is higgens point?

[justin]

in E-WA.

[Milanored92hatch]

k well no dice then till i get my ass over there

[justin]

[Milanored92hatch]

k iwant to try to rig some camera mount for my car without payin a fuck load for a bar

[justin]

buy a hero cam from VTR. they are pretty sick. les and i were up chuck one night messing around with it.

or i think i have a friend that might have one still.

[Milanored92hatch]

ya lots of $ probably

[pinksuby20]

Dustin got a bad ass camera system for when he races. Its from go-pro. Its nice its mounts to the front of the car on the lip, and the dash and it comes with alot of different mounts to stick to things..

[justin]

ya lots of $ probably

i think the hero cams are like 150-200 bucks. i dont remember exactly.

[Milanored92hatch]

that aint so bad mabey after christmas

[SToLeN88]

if you go east bound on i 90 and take the wolf lodge district exit. and head south towards harrison. thats a pretty good drive. i forget what the road is called though.

[eliteautosport.net]

i have my camera with me at all times and it will be with me tonight and i got the mount to suction cup it to your car.

[Milanored92hatch]

k sounds good ill have to try it out
