WABDR Sections 4 & 5 in June

[Gabriel Bozeman]

Hey folks,

I'm thinking of doing WABDR section 4 and 5 after the NorthWest Overland Rally in June.

Who would be interested?


Anyone know if snow will be a problem in late June?


Cheers!

Ouch. I meant to be on that call.

Didn’t mean to call you out like that

No! It's all good. Totally forgot and had friends over.

Gabriel,
Should be fine, in response to the snow question. Now, I am planning a trip going North on the WABDR after NWOR. Any body? Right after NWOR. So, will not be able to join the group going North. Some other time I would like to go, Lake Chelan, North to the Canadian border. Vance.

Sounds good to me.

Hi Vance. I might be interested in the South WABDR as I'm planning to be at the NWOR. I will be traveling with another party so I'm not sure what he and his kids will be able to do. If you have a sense of how long after the rally the trip will be, and stops, etc then I'd like to know, otherwise, at some point when you know just send it to me. Sounds like fun so we'll see.

Send me a P.M. as I don’t want to highjack this thread! Vance.

Will do.

I may be down for this. I completed everything up to Leavenworth last summer and ran out of time and had to head home. Would be nice to finish the trail.

Sounds good! I'm hoping to find out if I can do it next month or the one after. Fingers crossed.

I did those sections the first week of July in 2018 and found some snow on Lone Frank Pass. It was not an issue but there was snow.

As I live close by the WABDR sec. 5, the first part of June I will check and see what is open or closed and conditions. We do have a US Forest Service office here in Chelan, so I can get a current report on all the needed information.

Also looking at what I wrote, I some how messed up, as I will be going North not South. My plan is still to do the whole WABDR, from the start in Carson, WA. through to the Canadian border. Vance.

Good to hear from you Vance.

At this point (with the date change of the NWOR and COVID) I'm not sure if I'm still able to plan and do the northern 2 parts of the WABDR. I know of at least 2 other Overland Bound WABDR trips. I'll see if I can find the info on those. @M Rose can speak to those more.
