We Tour Oregon (wine country, the coast, and Crater Lake National Park)

What happens when you mix rolling vineyards, crashing waves, and a lake so blue it looks Photoshopped? You get Joe Saul-Sehy and Crystal Hammond’s four-day adventure across Oregon. From sipping Pinot in the Willamette Valley to standing awestruck on the rim of Crater Lake, this whirlwind journey proves you don’t need months off to pack in once-in-a-lifetime moments.

Along the way, Joe and Crystal share the highs, lows, and a few surprises—like where to find coastal gems that aren’t overrun with tourists, why Bend might be Oregon’s best-kept secret, and which travel snacks pass Crystal’s “road trip survival” test. Toss in some gear talk, essential tips, and the kind of stories that make you want to toss a bag in the car immediately, and you’ve got a virtual road trip worth every mile.

Whether you’re planning your own trek through Oregon or just craving some vicarious adventure from the comfort of your couch, this episode is your ticket to wine-soaked afternoons, windswept coastlines, and wide-eyed wonder.
