Moto Rodeo — Yakima County to Springdale

A six day Washington loop from Rainier and Naches to Springdale for a Moto Rodeo, then home by Fort Spokane and Grand Coulee. The archive is patchy, but the line of travel still holds: mountain roads, eastern Washington, and a long return north.

Across Washington

The ride began around Paradise, Longmire, and Chinook Pass on Mount Rainier, then moved through Yakima County and Naches toward Bumping Lake. From there the group headed northeast to Springdale for the Moto Rodeo.

The Long Return

After Springdale, the route turned back through the Fort Spokane and Grand Coulee country before Seattle. The trip combined two separate photo archives, so some details remain unresolved. The route, however, is plain enough.
