    Wow! What a National Treasure. Headed there from Florida one day on my Harley.

    We love it too. It's such a treasure for our state.

    @JuDGe369 When we re-opened the Oneonta Tunnel we had a parade of vintage cars. It was really fun to see. As more sections of the historic highway are opened, we'll have more special events and invite folks to walk, bike or drive vintage cars along the roadway. Call 503-731-4957 to get on the e-mail list.
  • It's 2016 now did Oregon connect all parts of the hwy 30 trail ?
  • 2:22 - And you'll never see it, because they blew it up with explosives for no reason. (They closed this Hwy and built a freeway down at water level. Still not a reason to destroy this wonder.)

    Pretty neat idea to spend millions of donated and tax dollars refurbishing this national treasure into a hiking and biking trail. The problem is that this trail is smack up next to the ridiculously noisy new Interstate Highway that replaced it, so there is no peace nor serenity here, so it's not gonna get used. Again, it's a great IDEA,....but what a waste of money this will turn out to be for how few people will actually use it. Look at the majority sections that are done now, the parking lots are empty and nobody is on the trail. The new million dollar bridges sure look pretty though.
