[quote=Anonymous]We are planning a trip to Oregon for next summer (2016). Planning far ahead so I can get reservations set for Crater Lake National Park set this summer when they open, but I realize we have plenty of time to still plan.

I've started some reading about it and feel overwhelmed with wanting to do "everything" that I read about.  So any DCUM people want to throw out suggestions? Family will  be DH & me (mid/late 40s) and kiddo (11 years old).

Already know we want to do... 
Oregon Coast (but not sure if both Northern & Central Coast, or just Northern or Central).
Crater Lake

90% Likely want to do 
Some time in Portland
Columbia River Gorge/The Dalles/maybe Mount Hood (at least to see, but not ski)

pretty sure we want to do
Bend
Lava  River Cave
family bike ride

Pretty sure we don't want to do
Eastern OR

Trip would probably be 7-10 days. Most likely August 2016.  We are fairly "adventurous" people and like things that we can't do here in DC. DH may be interested in some of the wine areas, but not sure  how that would work with our kid.

We did a trip similar to this a couple of summer ago... flew into 1 city on west coast, stayed there for a few days, then took off in rental car and hit a couple of national parks and major destinations. That trip was 10-11 days and was physically exhausting, but really memorable.
