Part 3 - Elk Creek Road & Mill Creek Road 

May 19, 2022 - SOUTH BEND, WA
If you’re thinking to yourself driving west through South Bend Washington, “can I take a gravelly shortcut to highway 101?” The answer is yes! This is a nice road to try. It’s very well-groomed without any giant potholes. It was a little damp when I was on it so you might experience a little over/understeer if it’s a wet time of year. Granted it may always be like that since it’s close to the coast. You’ll save about 10 miles and maybe 10 minutes.

Directions: As you drive into the main part of (Old?) South Bend heading West, turn left on Willappa Ave, then just head straight through to the End of Pavement and Gravel road signs. It’s a fairly smooth 2 lane gravel/dirt road in a classic western Washington PNW forest.
