I've only ever been to Raymond on that route, from Aberdeen on 101. LOL. Had lunch and supper at the DQ and in between I went and got a pretty motel in South Bend.
That evening I installed my disc brake on the mount that was welded in Seattle. Had a late breakfast at Chen's motel/ cafe. Next day I was going back and forth between Long Beach an Ilwaco.
Last year a guy was asking about a 10 day trip from Portland to Seattle by way of Rainier. I said to go to Raymond either way and head east.
Never heard what happened. I didn't realize there was gravel. Looks OK on paper.
