Today we’re deadheading (driving without freight en route to pick up freight) from Hermiston, Oregon to Camas, Washington; a driving distance of 177 miles.

There is so much to see today that I’ve broken the day up into three videos; this is part one.

This portion of the drive is all about driving on the Oregon side of the Columbia River from Hermiston to Hood River where we’ll cross the river into Washington on the Hood River Bridge.

Part two picks up at the Hood River Bridge and continues on the Washington side of the Columbia River to the shipper in Camas.

Part three shows the drop-and-hook process at the shipper, followed by a trip back over to Oregon to the Troutdale TA truck stop to purchase and replace two lights for the trailer.
