ferry across to Kalama. 'The ferry
trip costs J2.50 a car. Those - who
do not want to use the ferry may go
by the Interstate bridge and Van
couver and then north over the Pa
cific highway to Kalama. In the
eent of going this latter route
there is a small detour to the left
between Pioneer and La Center. The
Columbia River highway, however, is
in the best condition.
Between Chehalis and Centralia
there are two roads. The caravan
will take the main road. This is now
undergoing repairs, but it will bo
open again for . traffic - August 22.
The road between Kelso and Castle
Rock is reported as being slow and
for a distance between Castle Rock
and Toledo is in bad shape. The rest
of the road is all in pretty good con
dition. .
After the arrival at Tacoma the
caravan will take the road leading
out from Pacifit avenue and it will
lead straight to the park. It is
marked with signs so that the cara
van will have no trouble. Most of
those starting on August 23 will make
an easy trip to Tacoma and stop,
over night at the Tacoma hotel, going
out to the park next morning so as to
arrive there about noon time. . It
takes -between four and five hours
to make the trip from Tacoma. to
the park. This will land the cara
van at Paradise Valley inn in time
to have a meal and be ready for the
opening of- the interstate conference
at 2 o'clock Wednesday afternoon.
