RFR Visits the Endor Speeder Bike Chase Shooting Location

RFR was in the Pacific Northwest for the Forest Moon Festival, a 3-day celebration of all-things-Ewok at the original Endor shooting locations for Return of The Jedi. The weather was beautiful when our host Tracey Boyd graciously drove us, along with Kyle Newman, with son and sister, and Ewok actor Kevin Thompson along with wife Tracy, to the Grizzly Creek Redwoods State Park, the famed location of the speeder bike chase. With action figures in hand, along with a real-life Ewok guide in the form of Kevin, we trekked into the woods where the downed tree formed a natural underpass for the speeder bikes to fly through. We spent some quality time at the site, shared a ton of laughs, and really felt like we were on the Forest Moon.
