Quickest route to Newport?

Chaps · 01-23-2004, 08:45 AM

Coming from the Seattle area for the TA meeting. Lived in Eugene for several years but now can't remember best way to Newport if one is coming from the north . . . through Corvallis maybe? Thanks - Bob

"through" Corvallis is probably the best way, take the hwy 34 exit towards Corvallis, there is a stop light just before the bridge into town, turn left towards "ocean beaches", it is a bypass around Corvallis and much quicker. That turns into hwy 20 which takes you all the way to the coast.

Just follow me! :grin:

Thanks guys, Hwy 34 it is, out of Albany right? Or is my memory totally fogged . . . I guess I could look at a map but that wouldn't be in keeping with how I normally do things (on land, that is).

Hey Popeye, thanks for the offer . . . should I just follow the trail of empty spinach cans I see along the highway?

I'm looking forward to seein' how you OR tuna pros get rigged . . . I'm going to run out of Westport next season, maybe wing with Hamachi if he'll have me . . . anybody know if he's coming tomorrow?

34 through to LC

Do not take the Albany exit, that's Hwy 20. Go a few more miles to the Tangent (Hwy 34) exit.

What Mark, said the 34 exit is 4 miles south of Albany.
