What an amazing road. Imagine if it could be an Oregon Trail Rally stage.

Yes, the music is silly. It was intended to be fun, Super Hero style.

No roads, tires, or people were harmed in the filming of this video.

Very scenic.. especially with all the white fences. Almost looks like something out of Switzerland or something. Nice video btw (I watched it w/o sound).

Beautiful road for sure. Driven/ridden it plenty. Just a heads up - LOT's of cyclist's use this road as it's a designated scenic cycling route in a national scenic area. Tons of blind corners and there's no shoulder. Often gravel on the part under the overlook as well. W/ that said, it's amazing.

For sure. There were several bikes, and rangers out there with us. This is NOT the place for speeding or driving wrecklessly. Too much traffic (gone due to creative editing) for the crazy drifters for sure!

truth. I almost tagged a guy on a bike with my go pro camera mounted on the side. from there on I slowed it down, not being local, I didn't realize how common it was for bicyclists to be all over the road.

Don't you mean cyclists need to keep an eye out for you?


Nice vid Shawn, I'll be hitting this road up when the sun shines again.

I agree. It's pretty fast, but I needed it to fit in the music

Cool video! Excellent area for pictures, though these were with a point and click. I used to live in the town of Bridal Veil, which is pretty much all demolished now.

Can someone be more specific about where these Rowena Loops are?

I'm in PDX, looking for scenic or fun roads.

Just look at that map. The NW is so full of these killer roads, I can't imaging living elsewhere.
