Damn...hope I'm not too late! Road 204 southeast out of Canyondam (2N780) is a really scenic route. Round Valley Reservoir is nice to look at, and maybe a nice place to cool off, I don't know. Hang a right onto 89 to 70. We took a right onto 27N26 along the NF of the Feather River but got turned around by a closed road. We backtracked down to 26N26, headed north, and then right onto Rd 307 into the town Almanor on 89. Humbug and Humboldt Rds are pretty scenic and fun. On the north side of the lake is goaty paved Rd 10. Take that heading north, take a left onto 30N72, it loops back out to Rd 10 right where the pavement ends. Go left towards Echo Lake. Echo Lake is a fabulous place to have a picnic lunch and/or a swim. Continue on Rd 10 and go left towards Silver Lake. You can keep riding north on dirt til you get to Oregon, or you can loop around to the right on Rd 110 (it's kinda wonky there on the loop, and not as well marked as I would have liked, or maybe I just wasn't on my game that day, dunno) and continue northeast on A21, and then there are several dirt options to get to Eagle Lake. If you want I can try to get a decent shot of the maps I used for this trip. And I just realized I never did a ride report for this ride! :wow
Early morning mist coming off Echo Lake...
Yellow Creek along 26N26...
Have fun wherever you go, and take photos!
EDIT: We did all these routes (and more) fully loaded for a week of camping. I was on my Husky TR650 and Eric was on his KTM 950 ADV
