Fastest my butt. Maybe shortest distance, but definitely not the fastest. Even in summer months with good driving conditions it would be faster to stay on 31 till it met up with 395 at Valley Falls then followed to Reno.
I’m surprised the forest service road wasn’t gated off. Many of them in that area of Oregon are during winter.
Idiots.
Oh heh read it wrong, they were on shortest when they probably should have picked fastest.
Either way just staying on 31 and a good GPS would have auto-recalculated in a matter of seconds.
And that’s another point I’ve tried to make, the shortest route is not necessarily the fastest way to get to where you’re going. Hubby once took the shortest route, but it was miles of street lights vs just staying on the freeway which would have gotten us to our destination faster.
