the most gas efficient, since gas is now 3.50 here on the penninsula ... I think we'll take the ferry and head over on 90 and loop around the back east side of rainier? I don't really know seattle that well ..

is there another way to take? I know from my moms house its a good 2 1/2 hour drive to white pass .... i know its around there somewhere ... ???

Here is my suggestion:

Take the ferry to Seattle. Once there, get on I-90 Eastbound. Exit and head North on I-405 until you get to Exit 23 to Hwy 522, which will take you to Monroe. In Monroe, head East on Highway 2 to Goldbar.

Hope this helps

No longer able to make it.

Yesterday's scouting trip ...

we need a new front axle, ring gear in the front diff and lots of TLC! Hope that the dealership will cover it, if not at least part!

Default Allow me to introduce... myself

Hello, All. I've been itching to get off-road and decided I'd just better try to make time. So talking to a friend of mine I suggested Saturday we should find a trail in my Jeep.

I am a complete novice off-road, but would like to meet up with the group so long as we aren't intruding and/or going to slow everyone down.

Let me know if this Saturday's trip at Reiter should only be considered for more experienced drivers, and/or if you already have a big enough group.

I was planning to start on the trails in Belfair as they seem more catered to the rookies but the close proximity and potential to learn from the group sure sounds appealing.

Please chime in with your thoughts. (And don't sugarcoat it... I'm a big boy and can handle it.)

Hi Hoovis,
I am leading the run this weekend @ Reiter trails. Reiter Trails offers all sorts of tail options from full size vehicles to stuff that WILL cause my RubyDoo to almost yipe home. As i have yet to hear what people want to run, My thaughts have been to keep it pretty simple but challanging.
