512 is a good road. I just made that delivery a couple of days ago. You always want to take your directions and your routing and put then together with a map and see where they intersect. I have had routing that takes me onto hwys that are way past where my directions tell me to get off. Many times you will find that the directions May gives you are only from one way. Last time I checked there were four points on a compass if you know what I mean.

hey ya all just sittn in the brooks yard till morning and was wondering about the directions to Camas WA, gerogia pacific, it mentions 99 e, not sure why but if anybody has some good directions would be appreciated gonna go in the dark lol
-
Personally I would take I-5 north to I-205 north. Why they have you on 99E is beyond me....it's slow down, speed up, wind your way through multiple lights and places like Aurora, Canby, and Oregon City and onto I-205. It may be physically shorter in distance, but definitely NOT a time saver! And the route between Canby and Oregon City is notorious for accidents.
Word of note just before arriving in Camas. There is major construction as the road narrows from divided 4-lane to a 2-lane. They also have periodic delays during nighttime hours for work on the Slough bridge. Before the construction began truck traffic to G.P. went to the light on Hwy 14 and Union St., turned left onto Union which becomes SE 6th Ave 2 blocks later and along 6th about .5 mile across the river and then left into the G.P. site. Pay attention to your routing in this stretch since there may be a variation due to the construction. -
cool thank you very much. makes it easier to hear it from another driver
-
what's wrong with the Macro 10 directions?
-
notta, just was double checkn is all, grouch lol, jst kidding, have a merry christmas
-
Your routing will take you from whatever city you emptied in last to the pickup. That is probably why it had you on 99e.
Pay attention to the directions to get into camas. You can get lost easily and not so easy to turn around. I know from experience up there
