NW WA Meet / BS Thread

You can still go back salmon la sac but there will still be snow at the lake.

 

Speaking of stuck and snow:

Went to 75-30 towards Lonesome Lake to get to the look out - fail.
Very soft snow and less than experienced snow-wheelers = winching.

Throttle control was not-existent...

 

Throttle control? You must have gone with @bobsuruncle

 

June 25th of last year... first successful attempt of the year.

Can't seem to figure out how to get a hyperlink on my phone.

 

No, there would be some AWESOME media on that outing

 

New sliders. If you saw my Metaltechs you can see how awesome these are.

Kick out goes right into the tire and not 2” past it, angled up, and far more low profile.

 

You have any plans on a front bumper?

 

This saved me a lot of time this weekend going to tahuya for the first time. Thanks dude! If anyone is planning a trip out there let me know, found a few routes that weren’t too crazy, could see how a long bed might be an issue tho.

 

Vance creek bridge is also pretty high,there’s some badass camping way past Vance creek bridge too
Camping spot^

 

Vance creek bridge isn’t open anymore as far as I know. They’ve gone to great lengths blocking access to it

 

What's the best option for non skid grip tape shit?

 

I was going to put some on my sliders, but I was reading they can really scuff up your shoes. So far I haven't had an issue with slipping on my sliders getting in or getting out of my ruck.

 

I was up there a couple weeks ago,I mean I wasn’t climbing around on the bridge itself cause I’m not a dumdum but you can still access it with a short walk

 

Speaking of the Olympic peninsula..I spotted this Frankenstein Volvo s40 when I was out there last haha

 

Last I heard they had a quard posted at the entrance to make sure people weren’t walking back, but that may just be weekends.
Other than that I know they dug out a lot so you can’t climb on the bridge anymore. I’m sure people still find a way up on it.
I walked out on the bridge, definitely worth doing
