This is a three-day extended drive for those of you who cannot wait for the June Northwest Passage tour with three full days of driving. We are heading to Baker City for two nights with plenty of driving on scenic, twisty backroads. The actual route will depend upon the level of snowmelt.

Basically, on Thursday, we will meet at the Huckleberry Inn in Government Camp, have lunch in Fossil, and end the day in Baker City where we will stay at the Geiser Grand Hotel for both nights.

Friday, we head towards Oxbow Dam at the Oregon/Idaho border and, depending on snowmelt, we will either go north to Joseph or south to Ontario. On Saturday, we head home via, once again depending on snowmelt, Anthony Lake, Ukiah, Heppner, Condon, and Wasco.

Please note that unlike the Walla Walla Wine Tour in the past several years, we will not be visiting any wineries. Instead, since the Geiser Grand Hotel has a reasonable corkage fee, please feel free to bring some of your favorite wines to share both before and during our two dinners.

Also, unlike previous years your registration fee includes the cost of the Thursday and Friday night dinners that will be held at the Geiser Grand Hotel.

Reserve your room by calling the Geiser Grand Hotel (541-523-1889).

The ticket price is $200 per Person.

We have room for 12 cars and 22 participants.  Please arrive by 9:00 am at the Huckleberry Inn in Government Camp (88611 Government Camp Loop, Government Camp, OR 97028). Participant’s safety meeting at 9:15 and leave by 9:30.
