Took the public transportation to the Sunset Transit Center to get out of town, hitchhiked at the highway entrance there for 30' before heading towards the highway to get more luck/traffic. Light rain might have not helped.As I was about to try on the next on-ramp, Andy pulled over with his Tesla. He drove me out of this highway, to improve my chances of having a ride. Offered me some snacks. He told me in many years driving here, he has never seen a single hitch on this specific highway.

Hard to find a proper spot. Lots of traffic, but short shoulder and sign forbidding pedestrians to go too much on-ramp.Got finally a ride from Annie, a girl in her twenties with a free afternoon who offered me to go all the way to Portland.
Very nice ride , lots of chat, nice weather and good view on Mt Reinier all the way !

Going southbound, this is your spot. Good viewing distance, good Portland folks. Making a sign may be helpful. Look for the hippie vans!―Anonymous

Got out surprisingly fast. Right under the arches of the I5 bridge―Anonymous

Totally agree! Got yelled at a couple of times and asked to leave, but caught a ride just as I was walking off the site. Just be visible.―Anonymous

Large truckstop. Good for rides north or south. You may be thrown out if you're asking for rides, but we sat around with a sign near the entrance and had no problems. (Don't be an asshole.)―Anonymous

Tons of traffic and just enough room to pull off, but it's a little too intense. I had to wait a couple hours for a short ride.―Anonymous

Offered a ride immediately to Albany. I turned it down like a fool, hoping to get one all the way to Eureka. Ended up getting no more offers for a couple hours, then the sun went down. Hard to rate.―Anonymous

I walked here from Fife. It was well worth the walk.There is a ton of room for cars to pull off. A retaining wall partially blocks the view for some of the oncoming traffic, but they still have plenty of time and room to stop. I got picked up really quickly by a guy that ended up buying a bus ticket for me to portland, so I'd call it a win.

I waited 8 hrs with no ride. I can see how this would be a good spot, but the traffic was mostly teslas, BMWs, and Lexus'.Maybe I just picked a bad day to hitch.

Got a short ride to Newberg. Pretty easy spot so it may be worth it to find a ride going further.―Anonymous

Good spot to get back to I-5, not much use for anything long term I imagine. Lots of traffic and big shoulder.―CB
