I had a blast! And i learned not to go to slow in mud... I was sitting in one spot for about 2 mins until i could wiggle my way out and gain enough speed. After that i was up and down the lake a bunch and in that big puddle. Then i washed the crap out of it. Its an endless cycle. One i like :yup:

Wheeling in Tapps! Are you serious? Ive lived in the Tacoma area for 30+ years. Always new they drained the lake every year. Never in a million years thought they would EVER let people drive in it. Is it open to the public, or do you know someone who lives on the lake?

[mlbplayer86]

we got to the lake down an open lot, i dont know if what we were doing was legal or not, but since its drained its wide open. I guess people go there all the time (notice all the ruts)

People were even watching us, no one gave us trouble.

why the hell do they drain a lake every year?

[mlbplayer86]

no ideA? keep it from freezing for some reason? Maybe to keep it fresh, and clean? i dont really know, or really care. Cant really use it in the winter and it makes for a nice mud puddle =)

Water rights. The public utilities (not sure which one) uses the water to make power. They have been fighting over it for years, in fact they almost drained it permanently a couple years ago.

Of course, now that I find out it's a good close spot to go mudding, they'll probably fill it permanently:drowninga:
