RV Life randomness in the Pacific Northwest (summer 2023)

Follow
Novel Trek

The video covers a couple of months of driving the motorhome point of view (POV), (Winnebago Journey 37H), (full time RV living) throughout the Pacific Northwest from the Cowlitz River Valley near the Randle and Packwood area to eastern Oregon, Northern California and the Oregon Coast. I try to cover each specific area with visual aids before each new location. The following is the campgrounds and locations that I visited.

Iron Creek Campground Near Randle Washington didn't get a chance to film but it is beautiful and going back when it reopens.

Riffe Lake Dispersed Near Randle Washington my friend and I stayed here one night before moving to Taidnapum Park.

Taidnapum Park Campground Near Randle Washington friends joined me for hiking and fun in the Cowlitz River Valley. We hiked to Iron Creek Falls and some other hiking trails in the area.

Silver Springs Campground & The Dalles Campground Near Enumclaw Washington A valley that forms at Mount Rainier and plains out in Enumclaw Washington. This campground is in a old growth forest with large trees.

North Fork John Day Near Ukiah Oregon I drove from Enumclaw to John Day to hang out with family and friends for a whole week on the river in Northeastern Oregon. Did a lot of kayaking on the river.

Prineville Oregon Stayed at county park one night.

Farewell Bend Campground Near Prospect & Crater Lake Visited the crater lake and enjoyed the Rogue River.

Redwood Valley RV Park In Hiouchi California This is a good home base for larger rigs or would prefer a sunny warmer location as it is away from the cooler coast and in a meadow. The Jedediah Smith Redwood State and National Park is one of my favorites. This campground offers a driverless experience with walkable access to the vast trail system that connects together with no need to drive anywhere. Although it is a little bit of a walk (mile) from the RV park to the State Park where you have access to trails.

Salmon Harbor Marina Winchester Bay Oregon This is a huge complex with many reservable and first come first serve sites in a marina out in the middle of a bay. Plus there is access to the dunes making this a popular outdoorsman destination. I only stayed one night but glad I know it is there as it is a perfect stopping point in my travels. And it is very affordable and don't have to unhook car.

Cape Perpetual Oregon While I did not get a chance to hike here, I did successfully park my giant motorhome at the visitor center. However I was worried about getting stuck so I left. Will be back.

Coyote Rock RV Resort & Marina Got to kayak the Siletz River. Met friends for a few days in nearby Lincoln City.

Stan Hedwall Park Near Chehalis Washington, stayed here for few days.

Enumclaw Washington Stayed at the county park and met friends for Hiking at Skookum Flats in an old growth forest.
