If y'all don't wanna go Saturday & just wanna do a Sunday run then I understand.
Can't be missing TR though

 

The Saturday plan is for Ellensburg area? Could you please put a dot on a map for me so I can try and plan the trip. That's a long ass drive.

I don't know the area too well in terms of roads, but this area (closer to your guys' spot this last trip) seemed pretty good:



This is north of Ellensburg, is higher in elevation and should provide some nice views over the valley --> zoom in closer to show NF roads:




Eburg is pretty deep... I'd be down for something more so just east of the pass, but at higher elevations that we can get to

 

I am making a trip across the state on wednesday. If i get outta town quick enough i could check out an area or two if you guys make up your mind on a location or two. Passing right through E burg. Could post some humpday eyecandy of the beginning of the trail and the snow conditions if you'd like.

 

Yeah I'm learning how neat of an area it is right now on Google

We never say no to pics

 

I say we check out the top of this mountain, or at least as high as we can get... it's a switchback that forks off of NF Road 5045. It'll get us just below 5,000' of elevation so it should hold a spectacular view.

The second area I think looks good is just a little bit further to the West. TONS of FS roads in and around the that pinpoint on the map, also.. where the pin is might give a neat view over I-90 & the South Fork Snoqualmie River.

47.382428,-121.564922




The final area (which I actually think looks the best) is at a high point just NE of Chester Morse Lake. Has a lot of switchbacks & looks like a sweet view from the top overlooking the valley below to the S/SW.

Just suggestions, I'm open to other areas though! Let me know what y'all think

 

Well I've never been so I wasn't aware of the gates in the area. Maybe Kyle (kbauman92) has some input since he lives right around that area...?

 

i think finding out firsthand might be the best way.. and most fun also

 

I'm game for that route also!

*sigh* National Forest = everyones land

....but not when they gate the road!!

 

recon may be in order

 

Aye sir, roger that.
Report back on the findings!

 

Im not gettin stuck out there all alone for you fools though haha. Ill see what i can do. You got info on how to get out there?

 

Yeah, NO GETTING STUCK. Just check for gates I would say -- at your own risk of course.
As far as getting there, I would copy/paste those grid coordinates into Google and zoom in on Google Maps to see what roads lead you to the bottom of those areas

Shit, too bad he's not closer. If he was on Snoqualmie pass/a surrounding area he'd have a fleet of Tacomas heading his way at 70+mph haha that's a guarantee

 

Hey at least if i get stuck ill be with a college girl and will hopefully have you guys out there by saturday...

 

That really sucks for the guy who flopped his truck. Hope he gets it sorted out and makes it out of there soon. I'm down for whatever Saturday guys.
