620slodat Posted January 23, 2023 Report Share Posted January 23, 2023 I live close, and I don't think this question has been answered yet. Silvercreek Falls is about 30 miles one way (if my memory can be trusted) which could be a good fun run. Silvercreek Falls can be accessed from either the north through the town of Silverton, or the south through the town of Sublimity. Either way it is a beautiful drive through farmland, back roads, forests, and is on a paved road. There are also about a total of 24 miles of trails around all the falls and the side trails, if you like to hike. A very beautiful area, but I am biased towards the area. The main park is a fee area, but the rest is not. You can drive through there without going into the main park, but I would suggest going into the main park if the time allows. There are a few buildings from the CCC days of the 30's in the main park. Don 5 Quote Link to comment

The drive to get to Powerland Saturday morning is enough of a cruise for me - so would not be wanting to do anything except kick back at the show or have a nice relaxing dinner. 4 Quote Link to comment

620slodat Posted February 17, 2023 Report Share Posted February 17, 2023 Powerland is close to the freeway, east of Powerland. You will have to go over the freeway to get to Silvercreek Falls, but you may not have to go on the freeway (not familiar with the roads there). Silverton is a big city of just over 11,000 in 2021. Sublimity has a population of just under 3000 in 2021. If you choose to stay on the grounds at Powerland there is enough to see there also. Whatever floats your boat I'm sure will be available. The big thing is that if whoever decides to do a fun run there is plenty of area to stay away from most big cities like Salem/Keizer. To get to Silverfalls from the south you can possibly not even know where Sublimity is, if you take the right roads. Sunday is the only day I might be able to get there, if I don't have anything that comes up. Don 1 Quote Link to comment
hobospyder Posted March 27, 2023 Report Share Posted March 27, 2023 Trying to have a truck to take, currently have a motor and trans but that's about it. Nothing runs, no steering, no fuel system, no coolant, no fenders hood or bed. 🤣 Tires seem to be holding air well though 3 3 Quote Link to comment

bananahamuck Posted April 12, 2023 Report Share Posted April 12, 2023 (edited) Camping at Powerland is better than Canby was. There i said it. 7' chainlink fence to keep weirdos in and huge area so you can spread out for privacy if you wish... AND you could have a Costco propane firepit thing blazing at 1:30-2:00 ,, no ones going to come by and quiet you like at fairgrounds.. There is a couple old dudes in golf carts making sure the stupidity doesn't get outta hand but not like before.. . . Edited April 12, 2023 by bananahamuck 4 4 Quote Link to comment
