Hello friends,
How would you like to do a trip by Lake Chelan this Labor Day Weekend? Wanting 5 vehicles to join me on a fun and beautiful short adventure. Total miles for this trip would be about 95 miles. Dirt and gravel roads with some rocky sections just to keep things fun. Those that are afraid of heights May not feel comfortable! Full-size vehicles, vehicles with trailers, even 2wd. (LSD or Locker a plus)Pickups, with weight in the bed would be able to make the trip. Those wanting to pull a trailer would need 4wheel drive to make it through one 3-1/2 mile section. This would be a primitive Overlanding and camping trip experience. The campground will be the base, and there are trails for hiking and other roads close by to explore. This is not a camp one night and move to another spot for the next, Overlanding trip! The campground is: South Navarre Campground, in Okanogan National Forest, North of Lake Chelan. Wanting to meet at the Walmart parking lot in Chelan, WA. at 4:00PM. on Friday, the 30Th. of August. Send me a PM for more information. Vance.

Those that may not like heights May feel uncomfortable! Want to add, that there are some more technical trials all around the same area! This trip I wanted to be fun for those that want more, but also, someone new to see what this hobby of Overlanding is like. Helps to be in some beautiful country too! Vance.

OnehandyMofo,
This trip will work fine for full-size pickups! The last 3-1/2 miles to the camp is steep, so would need 4wd. Other roads around might be tight with brush and pin stripes, but not this loop. Call me if you want more information. 509-470-5655. Vance.

Vance,

We'd love to join you all for this trip, but my work has a do-or-die deadline for Sept 8'th so I have to work through the holiday weekend... (pretty much like the past several weeks... :-) I'f all works out, we could maybe join a group of you for an Oct trip...

Take care and have fun...

Will your Jeep make it ? I don't think 4 cylinders will do it ! Good luck, wish I were there.
