NW WA Meet / BS Thread

The trail itself is about an hour and a half to 2 hours. It is a bit rocky but nothing bad, a locker might help but I don't have one and I have been perfectly fine in the past.

Yes there is mud. Especially since it has been raining the puddles will be deeper. Not constant mud but there are some good puddles that you can kinda go around if you choose.

 

Just a reminder for people going tomorrow!

Alright guys just a final reminder before tomorrow.

-Coming from the West side: Meet up at North Bend Safeway (exit 31 off I90) at 9am.
-East side: You guys have your plans for Starbucks somewhere but meet up at Roslyn Shell station (just passed Suncadia) around 10:15am. It will take us about 50 minutes to get there from North Bend.

Communication: CB is best but if not a hand held radio will do, I will have both.

Gonna eat some grub and load up, don't think ill get much sleep tonight

 

I have two handhelds if anyone is in need.
I said I wouldn't hit mud...but let's be honest, I want to lose my tacomas mud virginity. I planned for all day so whatever's clever.

 

About to pack up now.

If it's muddy and stupid I'll be going REAL slow, FYI. Homie don't play that sliding around into shit bullshit.

I'll try to mess with my CB a bit too... See if I can get it working a bit better. It's my isolating washer... Mine is gone, so using an improvised rubber thing that's not working too well.

 

well guys wish I could but got to help out (work family) be safe have fun and hope I can make a run soon.

 

The trail itself isn't as muddy but more rocky, there are some puddles that will be deeper because of the rain

Watch for pictures!

 

I have to pull out from this trip too. While I was in my back acreage getting some firewood for this and managed to kill one of my tires with a nice 1.25" gash in the sidewall. After getting the wood in the truck and tire changed to the spare, wife yelled for help from me from far side of horse pasture. She was carrying one goat while the other was trailing close behind and the horses were running around. We are also petsitting my in-laws dogs, a pair of bichons. One of the horses ran at a bichon and there was a collision. Suffice it to say that 1200 lbs versus 25 lbs meant the horse didn't notice anything and wife thinks there is a broken foot. That means 3 broken dogs in the house, and wife needs help taking care of them.

 

Wow thats quite the farm you've got. And jeez that is a lot of things to take care of, I totally understand. How did your dog do that had an appointment today?

 

Annndddd I am ready.

I got lazy while packing...

Bringing hot dog roasting stick, hot dogs, buns, chair, beer. Water if I remember it at safeway.

 

Hot dogs for breakfast too?

 

So I guess rolling over solo... Again

 

All packed and ready. See you in the morning

 

There's a pork chop in every bottle.

 

Perfectly clear skies for you campers today.
Let's do this
What channels on the cbs/ handhelds you guys going to be on?

 

On my way

 

He survived. He is walking on the leg again, but we are trying to keep him from jumping and running. Doesn't work very well though.

Turns out that the inlaws dog walked away with a broken toe and small cut, and that's it. He is in a splint for the next 4-6 weeks but will be fine.

 

Geez, that's a lot to keep up with.
I'm here at the shell station, first to arrive!

 

Sorry to bail on you guys today. Not super happy with Bilstein at the moment. I'm home now, hopefully my 4Runner is on it's way too....

 

Uhhhh, details? I take it your truck is not drivable?

 

Joe what happened
