    I'd like to keep my mileage in the double digits. I don't live in the same vacuum as Andrew and Brian so my gas mileage is actually impacted by larger tires.
    Sam just got new tires a week or two ago. He probably also wants to keep his mileage in the double digits. Seems to live in the same world as I do.

    My ex and I went a few years ago and rented a van and drove the Ring Road in 3 days. Kind of started the fancy car camping bug for me.

    We went in like October so the weather was super shitty the whole time. I wanted to check out the plane crash but I also didn't want to walk for 3 hours in the freezing rain to see it.

    A more accurate answer would be no, it's not.

    There are a handful of places where it's allowed, but generally it's not.

    I doubt they'll get very far prosecuting anyone. The only wording the RCW trespass statue recognizes is "No Treaspassing" and the property must be "conspicuously" signed. Look at Paine Field or the Cedar River watershed for examples, a sigh every 100' or so around the entire property.

    Remember I am not a lawyer and nothing I say can be taken as legal advice.

    It's allowed anywhere it's specifically not allowed - which in reality amounts to few places.

    I was in one of the allowed spots.

    Exactly. It's allowed in far fewer places than it's not. And even fewer than that can you drive to.

    Can I ask where you were? I grew up on the coast in Oregon and only know of one spot down by Florence where it's 100% to camp with a vehicle on the beach.

    Just trying to make sure you don't think you can drive to Gearhart (or anywhere in Clatsop County) and camp on the beach because you heard it was allowed the internet. :)
