Annual OR/WA TSF Camping and Wheeling Shindig

Is that his roof?

Jason did you go?

 

ya he went under the tree and the tree didnt enjoy it

 

Nice

 

This trip was a lot of fun. I'm glad I finally got to test the limits of my ride. Curtis and Scott were huge helps. Definitely learned a few things. Can't wait until the next trip.

 

I know nothing about nothing at this point. I'm feeling pretty poor and in need of some truck maintenance, so I haven't been looking.

 

So I am looking into making a trip to Santiam Pass, aka Hoodoo. Its about 2.5-3 hours from Portland, depending where you start. I want to make a day trip out there before an actual meet is scheduled to get a feel for how the trails are and what we would be getting ourselves into. So far with a little online research the place had 50 miles of trails 3 years ago and has only grown since then. They are mostly moderate so I expect them to be similar to TSF. The map shows a lot of them to be only for Class 1 and 3, which is also a big reason for going there and check it out first. If anyone else knows more, please share.

 

Yea...I don't recommended taking your truck their. Not much to offer for a nice truck. Now, if you have a Wheeler then have at it. I have a few pics form a bachelor party we had their and its bonplace for a non designated Wheeler.

 

In the NW WA thread, we are planning to head up to Liberty to try some trails - just a heads up if anyone wants to come

 

I am really trying to find a place that has trails like TSF that is a little closer to me (Corvallis). If anyone knows of a place, PLEEEASE let me know.

 

There's Cascade Cruisers "Cruisin' the Woods"@ TSF.

Toyota only on the 28th & open event on the 29th. It costs $50-$65, and there will probably be a shit-load of trucks and some free SWAG

I probably won't be going, but we'll see how $$$ looks around that time.

 

Ahh.. well you can try Marys peak, lowpass area, high pass, shotgun creek. I'm just south of you in junction city. Lets see if bobert chimes in since he lives in corvegas.

 

marys peak is decent in the wintertime. it gets a good amount of snow.

 

what is lowpass/high pass? and hows shotgun creek? i just google mapped it, not too far.

 

Shotgun is ehh.. ment for bikes/quads. Has I believe 2-3 truck trails..not to sure the number. Low pass and high pass are just roads that have trails that spurt off them. Some are a little intense for a more or less stock taco.

 

ahh i see. well marys peak has a few little trails. but i have never really explored there. but the last time i went the snow was soo deep and slushy

 

I have been to Mary's Peak a few times and I did find a couple fun trails but they were short and few and far between. Very easy to get lost there. Luckily my phone's gps worked otherwise I might still be up there... What would be great is going there with someone who knows how to find some fun trails...

 

My current signature pic was actually taken at Mary's Peak

 

Your local National Forrest have endless area's to play in. Just got to get out and explore them dude!

 

Found what looks like a fun, two-day trip at the end of the month. I think I'm going. Maybe we can steal gitout's thread and post the same trip here.

Here is the link.
