Nice short ride with much variety. Usery Pass Rd and Bush Highway are in park/forest, so do not have good stop point for water, etc. However, the routes are heavily traveled by vehicle (particularly heaving boating traffic at times), as well as bikers. Both have wide shoulders, and are in good repair. After heavy rains, washes may have sand (or water!). The grade going south on Power (past Schlechts Butte) is challenging. Riding the reverse route may be easier, but the 4 miles going up Usery Pass from the north, although not as steep, is a much longer climb.
