    Northwest Area Off-Highway Vehicle Map - Hood River County

    This ^^^ is just the most popular NW OHV area,
    ...off Post Canyon and Riordan Hill / Binns Hill



    This PDF below covers all the HR areas, discusses the reason and use, and includes maps for all HR OHV Areas. Middle Mountain and Pinemont's East County Trail System also (and the powerline stuff off 17).
    This is a much larger PDF:

    I wouldn't have got it without you recognizing it.
    That's the spirit of this thread, I believe,
    ...recognizing the cool places from having actually been there, not just good Google-foo skills.
    .
    Well deserved up.

    Haha
    Close, but incorrect.
    If I remember right there were a few other buildings off in the woods to.
    I got a weird kinda creepy feeling when I pulled up and found this place out in the middle of know where. It's not Hobbiton, but sue felt like there were goblins around :eek1

    Looks like I may have to post up a different pic?
    I can just about guarantee if you've ever ridden up out of Estacada
    you have passed within about 200 yards of this building.
    Its just a short way down a little dirt trail off a pretty main road.

    The other shot was just a little east of the intersection of 4610 and 4613
    There is a little dirt trail off to the right as you head east and the abandon building is aboiut 1/4 mile down.

    Mapquest shows Aldervale as a likely candidate, though I don't remember seeing a town at that point on the map.
