A note for driving to the Gorge: get CB radios!
I rarely use mine around here, but it makes coordinating a group of cars
in the road *incredibly* much easier. On I-5, you can talk along the
way, which makes the 12-hour drive much easier to take when you're
driving one to a car. Around the Gorge, they help you keep together and
to talk up and down the river a few miles. In Hood River, it's a lot
easier to make a few stops and then link up again.
You can just go down and get the cheap one at Radio Shack for $50,
or find a used one for even less. Don't leave home without it.
The windsurfers I know with CB's use channel 22.
