    I count 14 I've been to. But I'd love to see Yellowstone and Mt Rushmore on 2 wheels.

    Multnomah and Willamette are both Indian (Native American) Names that have been Englishized ( not a real word?)

    Bonneville, as in Bonneville Dam is sometimes verbally butchered as Boneyville, but is properly pronounced as Bonnaville, like the well known Salt Flats

    I’ve been to one in Springfield, OR. It was an Excellent and Enjoyable experience, unfortunately schedules and locations have prevented me from attending any others, but I would definitely go to another in a heartbeat if the schedules and location lined up again

    It was one promoted on another website, I met a lot of interesting people, and no doubt would meet many at a GTG promoted on this site as well

    3 from the list.

    I would put a clear Wyoming night sky with no moon on that list. Out around Muddy Gap between Casper & Rawlins.

    The Badlands should be on there as well.

    History & beauty are all what the beholder wants to see & get from the experience.

    I could give a rats azz less about some on that list.

    Doug, if you came to MI, we have a few river names that gets butchered, starting with the Tahquamenon falls.

    I think it's 10 for me. Lot's more to see before I check out (and a few I'll avoid).

    I wouldn’t embarrass myself by even trying to pronounce that one just off the spelling, without having heard it said at least once

    Another one, from the Idaho Panhandle that is butchered mercilessly is Pend Oreille, which is a County and a very large Lake

    Those with knowledge of the French language might get it right, but very few others will, it is pronounced with more syllables than the spelling would make you think


    Doug :cheers:
