Three Norwegian friends tackle North America's new premiere long-distance mountain bike route: The Oregon Timber Trail.
The trail is an iconic 1 078 kilometer backcountry mountain bike route spanning Oregon’s diverse landscapes from California to the Columbia River Gorge. It is a world-class bikepacking destination offering incredible riding every day. It's designed with mountain biking in mind and consists of more than 60 percent singletrack. It runs south to north and travels through a variety of landscapes, communities, ecosystems, terrain, and, most importantly—mountain bike trails!

We used 13,5 days on the whole thing and stacked up on food in Chemult, Oakridge, Sisters, Detroit and Parkdale.
Navigation:
I downloaded offline topographic map on my phone from ViewRanger and then loaded the GPX files from OTT on top. This way, you have access to where you are no matter if you got service or not. Worked like a charm the whole trip
Good luck, this is a good one!
