Ride: Pick up, with my family (3 lang kami)
When: 1st week of June bago magpasukan.
Meron po ba mga motels or inn along the way?

Actually punta kami ng sta ana, cagayan and I am considering passing one of this less traveled route.
thanks na lang po sa mga me idea at mag input.

AFAIK 1 and 2 are unpaved, rough, narrow roads and quite dangerous to pass through especially at night reason being that maraming NPA at kawatan sa areas na madadaanan. additonally, they are not serviced by regular passenger vehicles so if you get stuck, it would be a while to get help.
For No. 3, Halsema is a paved, buguias to bokod is a mixture of paved and unpaved but would not be a problem for a pick-up.

wala namang npa sa 1, if meron hindi naman sila nanggugulo. we've always biked from banaue to sagada since 2006 but the roads are rough and madalas landslides sa mt polis area. from banawe its uphil until mt polis then goes back down to bontoc. may sections na isang sasakyan lang pwede dumaan

nakadaan na rin ako from Bagabag all the way to Sagada, ok naman ang byahe medyo malubak lang nung 2009. yung no. 1 kasi, its coming from Abra-Pinukpuk-Tabuk then Bontoc. sa google ko lang kasi nakita yung road and syempre medyo curious. mahirap din at sa tingin ko mahaba rin kasi ang byahe baka abutin ng dilim. pero kung me makapag confirm lang dito na ok yung daan or ok rin na dumaan, then I might somehow take the risk.

Thats not the route in 1, there is a reason people in both provinces go around through baguio when going to/from Abra-Mt.Province. The one you are referring to is the Bontoc-Lagawe road which as 100% paved already.

basta me matulugan lang along the way from Bangued to Pinukpok at basta me madaanan lang, I will take the risk. anyway, of course, i'll see to it that the whole journey will be properly documented.
