Burns is in Harney County, which as far as I can tell, requires a minimum of 6 Oregon Counties to get to, assuming he started in the Portland area. So it looks like he didn't make it Burns.
Let's do this the Mastermind way.
Los Angeles, Multnomah, Clackamas, Malheur, Baker, Wallowa.
Los Angeles, Multnomah, Clackamas, it is. So the question now is whether you went south down I-5 through the Willamette Valley (which would add Marion, Linn, and Lane counties), or whether you went west to the coast (which might add some combo of Marion, Yamhill, Polk, Benton, Lincoln), or east toward central Oregon.
The first time I saw the first photo, I immediately thought central Oregon. I could guess now, but it might be more fun to see the next clue.
The other option was driving east along the Columbia, and then possibly south. That drive is really nice, IIRC. That would probably add Hood River county to the trip,
30 That answer, alas, has to be wrong because it is not possible to drive from Clark County to Mt St Helens without first passing through Cowlitz county. Which would give us seven counties.
He could have approached St. Helens the back way directly from the Bonneville Locks, which would go Los Angeles, Multnomah, Clackamas, Hood River, Klickitat, Skamania.
Eric has the correct answer. I crossed over the Columbia at the Bridge of the Gods just past Bonneville Dam and then recrossed at the Hood River Bridge.
Yellow alert - Player needs triple for cycle
Orange alert - Player needs double for cycle
Red alert - Player need single for cycle
If a player needs a home run for the cycle, the level of the alert varies depending upon the determination of the Cycle Detection Warning System, which is headquartered in Thief River Falls, Minnesota.

That's that big rock thing near Orange off of the NJTP.
Good grief.
The question is did Bob count Los Angeles County as one of the six? If not, my guess is Kern, Kings, Fresno, Madera, Mariposa, and Tuolumne.
Los Angeles is the only correct one.
Additional clue being added.
You have 3 out of 6 correct.
I knew it! Bob went to Oregon!
Yes, I did just click randomly on a map of the 48 contiguous states. Why?
1 out of 6 are correct.

Los Angeles, Multnomah, Clackamas, Malheur, Baker, Wallowa.
You have three out of six correct.
I will add another clue later tonight.
The first time I saw the first photo, I immediately thought central Oregon. I could guess now, but it might be more fun to see the next clue.
You don't recognize the first photo?
I suppose it's probably Mt. Hood...
No.
My first guess would be Columbia/Clatsop.
Your first guess is incorrect.
Additional clue above.
I drove that road by the river east to west once.
I'm working on the assumption of a visit to Mount St. Helens.
Los Angeles, Multnomah, Clackamas, Hood River, Clark, Skamania
