It&#8217;s set back in a little nook between the Cascade and the Simcoe Mountain north of Goldendale. The Klickitat has carved an impressive channel down through &#8220;The [...]]]></description>

It&#8217;s very scenic and passes by Emigrant Reservoir ascending three 4,000+ foot mountain passes. These fantastic passes include Hayden Mountain 15 miles or so west of Keno.

This road starts over at Interstate 5 and heads East to the village of Yale, then turns to the South and down towards Vancouver, Washington.

		<description><![CDATA[State Route 9 is one of Washington State&#8217;s finer examples of a rural highway. The curves are well-engineered and most of the curves have very good visibility. The pavement is very hig-quality, to the point of being in a shockingly well-maintained state from the viewpoint of this jaded Seattle moto-commuter. There&#8217;s also no lack of [...]]]></description>

A very nice, smooth road that is made up almost entirely of wide sweepers and bridges leaping across various canyons. As there&#8217;s no industry inside the National Monument, there&#8217;s little tractor-trailer traffic to worry about or break up the pavement. [...]]]></description>
