Scheming the perfect 3-day spring weekend

from Peak Northwest Hosted by The Oregonian/OregonLive

Long weekends are cause for celebration — and a prime time for road trips. While we hardly shy away from covering some serious ground during standard two-day weekends, an extra day off gives us an opportunity to set our sights a bit farther afield. And with Memorial Day weekend on the not-too-distant horizon, we decided to dedicate this episode of the Peak Northwest podcast to a collection of top-notch destinations that require a bit more driving than many would like to cram into a two-day weekend. Some highlights: Jamie and Jim wax poetic about the possibilities three-day weekends provide. They rattle off a variety of recommendations for long spring weekends. (Spoiler: Destinations range from Oregon’s Alvord Desert to Washington’s Olympic National Park.) Jim sneaks in a spring skiing suggestion.
