Klamath Falls to Yreka advice requested

[kozel4012]

I am looking for advice here - what's the best route between the two cities?  Through Ashland on Route 66/Keno or Route 97/York Road?  I am not familiar with the area.  I do realize that from Ashland the route is at times on I5.  Is the Meiss Lake/Shovel Creek road viable (i.e. paved)?

Thanks,

Ed

I traveled on the Topsy Road following the Klamath River.  There was a very short section on I-5.  Mind you the Topsy is not for the faint of heart or tires.  http://www.crazyguyonabike.com/doc/page/?o=2e&page_id=102277&v=J6
