At about 1:20 it looks like they pull over into the Swell City parking area: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K53wraR_GRQ&feature=youtu.be _________________ CGKA Member ------- Kip Wylie purdyd Since 27 Nov 2006 41 Posts   Mon Aug 17, 20 5:19 pm     Let’s not forget Charlie the lonesome cougar https://youtu.be/Mx8kJYWXhzs https://youtu.be/D_payIaCemA Justsmile Since 20 Jul 2009 1530 Posts Not Portland XTreme Poster Mon Aug 17, 20 7:02 pm     Bring Da Flume back.

Would be the sickest ride around. _________________ Take a breath; inhale lotsoluck Since 02 Jun 2018 20 Posts gorge   Mon Aug 17, 20 7:47 pm     When The flume was decommissioned some of the wood was salvaged.[img]    IMG_5774.JPG  McLovin Since 11 Sep 2017 294 Posts Corbett Obsessed Mon Aug 17, 20 9:59 pm    FlumAZING WHAT!?!
