Hey Crew,

As of just now, fires are still allowed. I’ll bring some wood, feel free to bring a few pieces if it’s easy.

Looking forward to it! I will meet up with you all in Randle.
Let me know if there is anything you need.

For those meeting in Centralia, I’ll do my best to find a wide open spot somewhere near the New Balance or Nike store on the east side of I5

Randle is the last fuel stop. We’ll do a quick meet & greet and radio check there.

I’m looking for someone to be my tail gunner. Just need somebody experienced enough to make good calls and radio up for breakdowns, group separation, people wanting to pass us, and able to navigate from the rear.

I think that’s everything for now. Looking forward to meeting all of you.

Looks like I am going to have to withdraw from the trip due to circumstances beyond by control.

Maybe I can make the next trip.

The number one cylinder injector on my JKUR decided that it did not like the idea of being in the mountains. It is making its protest know by quitting work. I will not be able to hire a replacement until Monday or Tuesday. Hope you all have a good time.

So, the one rig that was supposed to come with me is stuck on another adventure: so it’ll be just my rig and myself!

Also, quick question, are we meeting at the first coordinates or the trail head mentioned in the description?

Darn lazy injector! ;)
Hope your jeep feels better soon.
Hope to see you on the next one.

That was awesome and the weather couldn’t have been better. A big shout out to @a12houk for putting together a great trip and showing us the sites. And thanks to @Burly for running chase to make sure no one (me) fell behind and for scouting ahead on side trails. I will add some photos I took along the way . . . If I can figure it out. Tried in Chrome and the App, without luck.

Resize the photos to a smaller format (I usually select medium when on chrome browser)
