Tahuya Run
I am planning a short notice tahuya run on Sunday the 24th. We will stage in Issaquah at the Fred Meyers by the Starbucks at 8am leave at 9am sharp. Remember to bring a 5 dollar bill for the return toll. ALL are welcome, the trail is considered moderate with some difficult and extreme areas. The Hard areas do have bypasses. Pre meeting for those who are local is still tentative but thinking the Triple xxx root beer stand in issaquah On Friday evening 6PM. Contact me if you have any questions.
Also the newer south loop has some pretty fun obstacles for every level of Wheeler, hope to hear from you.

Excellent! We will set up in the staging area just across from the entrance for those who drive out another way. If you email me privately I will give you my # so we can set the actual ORV entry time.

Difficulty: Easy to extreme depending of area but mainly easy

Staging area
Looks like there should be a few of us heading out so the best time so far is 10:30am at the Elfendahl Pass staging/campground just right of the entrance of the trail. I will bring a set of two way radios for the lead and tail jeeps. I look forward to meeting you all out there.

After the mollies addition on the south loop, the trail is now up around 7.5 miles. Wranglerforum folks were up from the Portland Saturday and I showed them around Tahuya.
NWApache showed up late and a few folks headed back out with him after we had met back at the staging area. 21 Jeeps on the trail at the same time.
