January 2018 Seattle-Area Meet

You'll find a lot of ice. I actually ran chains for a bit on that attempt.

 

Supposed to rain tomorrow through the weekend, so that should mean snow.. if not then I won't go

 

Damn. Very nice.

I don't see my truck in any of the pictures though. Camo?

 

I got some street continentals don’t remember the actual name they aren’t aggressive at all. but they did okay in the snow on hwy 2 when I went to leavenworth last week.

 

If you look reeeeeeally hard you can see a sliver of it in a couple pics lol.

 

What you're telling me... is it "Stare hard, ........"?

Anyone down for a quick over night trip to Olympic national forest tomorrow night ?

 

If only I didn’t have to work Friday :-/

 

Just came back to TW after a few months’ hiatus. I would love to go to the mountains or do a meetup soon. Looks like a good time!

 

Here's the thread for the February meet:

@Korndog1284 @Rocco-Taco .... how'd y'alls trip go?!?

 

Friggin sweet! I gotta start writing trip reports. Different place every night like we planned. Wenas Valley, Umtanum Ridge, Douglass Creek/Slack Canyon Road, Teannaway/29 Pines.

Lots of coyotes howling. Anuja and I saw a Snow Owl (flew right in front of my truck) and a giant MOUNTAIN LION! The puma was dragging its fresh kill across the road we were on. It sat for a minute and then continued dragging it. We drove up to the deer and saw how big it was. Puma was likely hiding behind the sagebrush. It's incredibly rare to see one out in the wild so we definitely consider ourselves blessed.

You (and other stock/newbies) would've done fine I think. Didn't need chains. There was some ice but usually enough snow on top.

I've got drone and gopro footage I need to compile. Really awesome time.

 

Wow, that sounds like a badass trip! you should definitely write trip reports, would like to read more details!

would really like to stitch together a route on those green dot roads for the February meet. just hope the weather is good to us by then haha

 

No such thing as bad weather, just bad preparation. Lol
