Out of Estacada, park at Faraday Park. There is a 6 mile ride that goes along the Clackamas river up to Prometory Park. The ride is gorgeous. Expect to see Eagles, Osprey, squirrels, deer, and countless other wildlife. Continue on up to Fish Creek for a 30 miles round trip ride or make it a 2 day overnight and ride through to Detroit Lake for 140 miles round trip. The view is wonderful and the ride a real treat for the sences. Weekdays traffic is fairly light but it even on weekends, the traffic is not bad. Camping is available all along the way and the swimming is great. Give it a try. Take the Estacada exit off of I-205, proceed through Estacada about 1 mile until you see the Faraday Lake parking area. I hope you enjoy it as much as I have been. See you on the road.
