February 2018 Seattle-Area Meet Part 2

I second somewhere in eastern WA!

 

I could do a Sat-Sunday but i'll be back at work on Monday.

 

ive been following you guys meet up thread. like Meg, I'm a newbie. I'd love to tag along this time, if you guys dont mind.
I wanna learn from you guys and get to know my truck better.

 

I’d like to map out a multi day trip and people will be welcome to join us when/where they can.

 

I’m down but am a newb with snow driving and such. Can camp/home though so I’m down for a night or two trip.

 

Tentative. I will prob do an over-nighter at most. Cant make the entire 4 day but NEED to test out my trailer and RTT if there is somewhere that has the option to "establish" a campsite for the group (i.e. set up camp....trailer) and then go wheeling.

EDIT: @MaxxTRD @Kappes03 (you gone yet?)

 

We could go play around at Liberty off of blewett pass. Don't know what the weather or if there is a whole lot of snow over there but my buddy says we could spend days on the trails and never hit the same road twice.

 

I'm definitely interested. Finally, I don't have travel or out-of-towners hanging around for one of these.

 

A lot of those trails are probably closed

 

there is a ton of trails there and the ones I've been on are all easy. I wonder if they're open this time of year.

 

Yeah, I've personally never been so i couldn't tell you if they are open or not

 

Liberty and blewett pretty much turn into a snow park like stampede this time of year. I'm surprised they where able to find somewhere a few weeks ago.

 

Ah, Didn't know they went to blewett already.
Well we could go to kittitas i know theres some places over there.

 

Even if Liberty were open I would imagine it's a slick, icy, snowy mess up there and I wouldn't want to try the trails in those conditions. It's tough enough with slick mud.

 

(fun fact i learned last trip) the more people that drive on the snow trail, the icier the trail gets... so IF we end up with a large group, I don't think a snow route is going to be a good idea. But, that's IF there's a large group (I.E. more than 4 or 5).

 

Unless we get the right weather system I don't think we should plan for snow. Either go east somewhere or out on the peninsula.

 

I say east ... it's more "middle" ground if you will? that way the east guys/girls don't have to drive all the way west and vice versa.

 

I'd also vote east, but I'm only tentative for a Sat-Sun overnight

 

I'm to lazy to put my tent up until spring. Tag me in the next parking lot/tacos/beer meet and ill be in.

 

ARB parking lot on the 17th at 8am doughnuts and coffee.
