one eye Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 Does anyone want to meet up and go for a Mud run? I think Reiter Pit or if somebody has a special place to go it would be fun. I kinda wanna go wheeling, but I don't want to go by myself. And I havn't seen alot of the Subaru guys in a while. hope to here from some people.

Rooinater Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 so what weekend did you guys decide on? i'll see if i can pull a miracle... not promising with the way my lack of money and time is. but i'm dying to go off road! this whole being cooped up and only getting to snowboard or go wheeling if i can find a ride is getting old. if i can pull a miracle, i'll probably be taking it easy.

one eye Posted January 16, 2008 Author Share Posted January 16, 2008 I can't say I won't break anything, But I'll try not to. I'm going to bring an extra rear axle, and misc. parts that have been a problem area in the past. What day would work the best for everyone? I don't care what day it is. Maybe a sunday? I only say Sunday because Woody is working 6-10s Mon-Sat at his work right now. If sunday doesn't work he just might have to miss out.

r_kirky Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 How far is Reiter Pit from Mt Vernon? I would like to go my only concern is the long drive back. How does it compare to Walker Valley? Sounds like fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
one eye Posted January 16, 2008 Author Share Posted January 16, 2008 It is just past Monroe, and Sultan I think that it is really in Startup. It takes about an hour and fifteen min. to get there from my house which is right off College Way, That's if you go highway 9. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rooinater Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 12 - Edge Loop Trail - Last time I posted a map, no one knew this trail existed so I'm proposing this name. Honestly, if someone has something better great, I'm tired and not being very creative right now. 13 - Backside Trail - This is a relatively short trail right on the backside of Reiter. As yet nobody seems to have realized it's a Jeep trail and nobody had a name for it last time I posted. Again, if anyone has a better name, great. Not Listed / Not Mapped BYS - With the snow on the ground I couldn't find the start of this trail. I understand that even in good conditions it can be difficult to find. Unless someone wants to accurately draw it on this map and post it / e-mail it to me I'll add it to a Version 2 sometime later. SOL - I understand this branches off BYS so, if I couldn't find BYS, I wasn't going to find SOL. outlet mall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

audio_file Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 +1 I still have a nice coat of mud from screwin around at Walker Valley last week, might as well build on it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rooinater Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 not good for me. i have to buy tabs, 5000 .20g airsoft pellets (dynamic tire balancing $20), gas, and don't get paid till about the 7th... i'm out for trying on that day. i'll try another day down the road. also depends if i finally get my adjustment on my pay. but i can swing bb's and tabs no problem. if i can go, i'd like to head up to the washout on isabelle and see how bad it really is. supposedly the second major creek crossing is like 10 feet deeper than it was.

Rooinater Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 ok, i forgot about the tabs till i got home from school today, looked at the car... darn it they expired at the end of december... but i definately need to scrap something together and go wheel! it's eating me alive! i think the last time i drove offroad, was naches when i was supposed to only be on the logging roads... but wandered out to the goofy rocks alone... that was at least 4 months ago.

one eye Posted January 17, 2008 Author Share Posted January 17, 2008 I'll be there. I'll ask will and Todd but I don't think Todd'll make it, I talked to him last, but I'll call Will right now. Maybe all of us north guys can meetup and all cruise down together. Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rooinater Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 the whole river flow has changed after that last storm. this pic is the river crossing shortly after that major storm that reaked havoc everywhere. notice how it's just flowing in the center. that trail towards the left, where the dark jeep or 4runner is, used to be under water the last time i was there 4 months ago.

one eye Posted January 17, 2008 Author Share Posted January 17, 2008 I think I'm going to bring my Brat. I would like to take the wagon but I've only driven it up and down the road next to my house. I just don't want to work the bugs out 75 miles away from home. My Buddy Jake wants to come to, he has an 80 Brat, I sold it to him about 4 months ago. He's a little wild so he's going to run his down on a trailer just in case. Cody (numberonestunner) is going to try and get the day off too he just wants to go for a drive. He recently bought a 77 wagon from me and wants to get it cleaned out with a good drive. Will, will probably come too he's got an 82 lifted wagon. I'm really looking forward to this. I think I might get a muffler on the brat before I go too. That thing is so loud driving down the freeway I can't even hear the radio.
