The family is interested in attending as well with me. Since it's fully open highway, I may just bring up the rear of the pack and take Ole Blue with family in tow for this drive. I'll leave a couple hours earlier just so that i can arrive at the same time as the rest of you

I was at Hells Gate about 15 years ago, it's pretty cool, worth a stop.
Fingers crossed for the weather next weekend as we have a great weekend coming up now.
