    That's one of my favorite areas. I've got a few campsites up there that just can't be beat. How was the 70 rd?

    So I made it to the end of Natches Pass at least where it turns into some other atv? Path.

    That's where i am currently. It was a tight little trail getting back but not tight enough to make me turn back. It smells like snow but i think it's just light rain right now.

    An unusually high amount of pinstriping.
    A little late to the party, but you were on Green's Pass. You would have come up the Tie Road out of Lester. I have spent quite of time in that area for work before.

    Naches Trail, there was a sign for Naches Pass (old wagon road).

    I hear ya, would've been awesome to roll with more people but I posted up a few times, only got crickets...

    I've done plenty of wheeling alone and have a ton of recovery, survival, and general gear. Can't plan for every crazy what if scenario but you can do your best.

    You can always post up the areas you plan to be and when you will be returning. That way we know where to look for truck parts if you don't make it out.

    This is good wisdom that I totally disregard about a third of a time.

    Unfortunately no snow where i was. Frozen rain and rain.

    I headed out the easier route this morning towards Naches to fuel up. Stevens Canyon Road looks cool... If it's open.

    When the guys at Discount Tire don't build the valve stem correctly on brand new tires. Grrrr.

    As funny as that is, I was referring to overall width, not self declared brodozer width.

    Some ORV parks have maximum widths of 76" IIRC, and a lot of trails will have gate keepers that are exactly that width. Evans Creek is definitely that way. Unless you're totally bro-ed out, should be within that width no problem.

    Bro'd out isn't quite the issue... just looking at a tire change is all.
