NW WA Meet / BS Thread

Here's the roundabout route that we took - we did take some detours and different routes:

Mostly FS roads until Bethel Ridge. Mud Springs, Kaner Flats, Manastash and Quartz Mtn. all had their own difficult sections (hill climbs, tight curves in the trees, rocky sections etc.) but nothing too extreme.

 

As long as you dont mind body panels getting tender kisses from trees heh heh, no dents this time, but I was damn close. My snorkel head did get pretty smashed and I lost 3 mud flaps.

 

I bent a wheel, smashed another brake light, broke a hinge and trim piece on my canopy, and self-clearanced my fender flares a little more.

A few more teaser pics:

 

Great photos. You need to start a calendar

 

Trippy paint job or rogue shadows?

And the bottom photo looks like post snorkel damage...

 

Thanks Ryan. Most of those were cell phone pics with some retouching, but I know David (@mutilatedjak) also has some great pics/vids he will be posting when they're ready - it might be a little bit, but well worth the wait.

Just shadows...they do look pretty trippy though.

 

OOOOOO Look what I made!!! (with help from my stepdad - welder)

 

Thank you! Looks like an awesome route; for years I've been trying to find some kind of long-distance trail to cover/camp. How long did it take you guys?

Looks beautiful! Sorry to hear about the added character to the rigs. You think a 1st gen would be a bit easier to squeeze in?

 

We gave ourselves 4 days / 3 nights - but the same route could be done in 3 days. A 1st Gen is definitely more nimble so you shouldn't have a problem weaving through the trees. My damage was due to carelessness and not paying attention.

So, as I was leaving school, a guy said " nice brodozer dude!"
That's good, right?

 

What the hell does that mean haha

 

Did he toss you a keystone light?

 

lol Keystone, the bottle taste in a can

 

Perfect for when you want to drink 12 beers but still be good for semi-consesual sex

 

Only if you spray him with Prius repellent = "rolling coal"

Can't believe I typed the "P" word...

 

Nasty!

I'm going to take my canopy off in a couple of weeks to reseal it. I wonder what the swingout will look like on mine...

Just realized how damn long your truck is..

 

How was camping?

 

Good man! Just unloaded the rig and showered up. I have some beers calling my name. Spent the day going further up the mountains. Took some pictures. Pinstriped the truck a little more. How far back did you go?
