    Never heard that story, but I usually keep a gat at least in my truck when in the woods if not on my hip.

    Legend has it, the first Cadillac Escalade stolen in WA was found up middle fork/Taylor river road. Some of my old stomping grounds once I attained a driver's license. Granted that was 16/17 yrs ago. I've literally watched old roads be gated or tank trapped off to curtail meth labs, and illegal dumping/vehicle ditch spots. Hell I've installed gates and even decommissioned old roads for that reason and one point in my life.

    Never know what kind of folk you run into out there. Even when it's your own backyard.

    No it's any snowmobile park that once it snows it's technically a "snow park" and snowmobiles get pissed if you go up anyway. Sheriffs allow it as long as you aren't stupid and there isn't a ton of snow.

    People have had guns pulled on them up around cle elum and salmon la sac

    Yep, I went up that weekend and saw them. Tried to be cool and turn around in that spot where we aired back up (right at the start of the road) and got stuck, haha... My 4Runner looked quite sad. Resting on it's skid plates with all 4 tires spinning.

    Looks good. For all the crap everybody talks about Plasti Dip, I clean to mind off my front logo sanded, primed, painted multiple coats and clear-coated and that didn't last anywhere near as long as the Plasti Dip.

    Hey, thanks for noticing =p

    Not sure. It's the only dent on the thing... Well, other than the nice gouge in the paint on the bumper from my wife trying to back up with @GSPRunner's trailer hooked up. That short tongue jack knifed reallll nice. Of course, she didn't notice she did it. I am not going to tell her about it either... Not worth it.

    I agree. The plastidip on the front emblem of my 4runner held up better than the factory paint on the grill. Not a mark on it after 5 years or so.

    As long as you don't let her back it out of the garage. :D:eek:
    Does it even fit in the garage?

    Looks like you have a headlight housing fogging up there @northwesttaco

    Haha, right? $6,000 later (of the insurance's money) and we have the car back as of last Thursday.

    Yeah, the GX fits fine. I don't think it's much wider than her car, actually. That thing is wideee for a little sedan.

    Where is a good place in King County to go offroading? Specifically for a novice like myself.

    There's really nothing IN King County, I don't think. Until the snow melts you're more or less stuck here in the low lands. You could head out to Tahuya in Belfair, but that's all I can think of.

    Yeah, unless you're specifically looking to snow wheel, nothing in county. And the snow wheeling isn't safe alone. Look someone up, and be willing to leave the county.
