Columbia River Road near Omak Wa

This road runs from Omak Wa to Colville Indian Agency on Rt 155 north of Grand Coulee. It is about 42 miles and appears to be paved for all 42 miles. Harleys Ride Planner tells me that it will take 2 hours and 20 minutes which sounds ridiculous. Has anyone ridden or driven this road and can you tell me what shape it is in..

Paved all the way, good road. There are quite a few low speed curves that slows the time down. There is a pass to go over but not bad. Mostly forested nice scenery

Go a little further south and try Manila Creek Road (Peter Dan) goes from north of Coulee dam to Keller. Then go over the ferry to Wilbur. This will loop back to Coulee dam . Great road. Lots of curves and scenery. The trip from Omak to nespalem is only about an hour on 155 also.

Stop and see Sasquatch! East side of Disautel Pass.

Great ride, it is a hour ride from the CouleeDam to Omak.

If you happen to try the Manila Creek road run up to Keller, I’m there doing some work. The folks at the gas station will know where to find the Nebraska guy!!
