No no the kid is good. U dont have to watch ur mouth around him he knows not to repeat what he hears. And he is well behaved. His dad is ex military so he grew up with the iron fist. Hes actually really smart and mature for his age. I just wanted to know if u guys minded. but anyways this sounds cool. Gonna have alot of fun. I've never went on a big run with tons of people. B4 the date comes I wanna try and get my rear springs converted to actual leafs with no blocks kuz right now i have the stock leafs with those retarded blocks in the back. I already broke one in half. And i myte have my new rear end gears by then. Hopefully. And im thinken i should find me a spare tire just incase kuz i yet to have one of those.

 

I registered hoping to make it there for SOME of the stuff. I am working weekends (graveyard), so have to see how it works out.

 

hey im just curiouse about this but i would love to go , my 94 toyota should make it around ok, but what are the chances of rolling it? im not worried about getting stuck or mabey even breaking stuff, its only metal i can fix it later, but me and a friend want to come up pretty bad, he dosent have a truck so he'll ride with me, is that cool with everyone? and do you guys camp out or head back to a hotel every day or what? thanks for any general info,
"

Ps. is there a registration fee?
thanks

 

Hey all, I think I may come up from Oregon. What kind of trails are talking about here. If I come up up in my bone stock 98 4runner will I be playing camera man the whole time?

 

There's a couple of posts farther up this list that deal with this. To paraphrase. You will expect some Cascade pinstriping, but if you follow directions and take Rob's Trail 101 class, you should come out without any damage. If it's dry, you will have a blast. If it's really wet, things will get more interesting :o)

 

No fee at all, this event is FREE! As always when wheeling there is the possibility of damage and possibly rolling, but you would have to do something really stupid to roll on the Naches trail. There will be multiple runs, everything from so easy you could drive a lowered Honda Civic up it, to hard enough to make you wet your pants. We will be camping but Whistlin' Jack's is not too far away if you absolutely refuse to rough it but where is the fun in that?

 

There will be runs available for all skill levels. We will have anywhere from scenic forest service road runs to the hardcore stuff for the brave at heart.
It will all be to your choosing.
So, to answer your question, “what are the chances of rolling”, the possibilities will be there. It will be up the individual to decide what skill level he/she fits in.

The main run will be the Naches west to east run.
I ran this as a newbie last year. My only mods were a 2inch lift, running boards removed, and all terrain tires.
This was my first official group run. Prior to this all my experience was riding FS roads and light trails.
If you are looking for a run that is going to be technically challenging to keep you focused, this is the run for you. It’s not a ride to grandmas house but it’s a very doable run.
The trail will start out very mild with open terrain and change to tight turns, good hill climbs, some off camber spots, and maybe one or two pucker hills.
I enjoyed this run because unlike some runs, this started out very mild and slowly got technical. It gave me the opportunity to adjust to the terrain. Once the terrain got to be manageable I was introduced to the next obstacle.
I was enjoying the whole experience so much that I forgot about how difficult it may have been. Before I new it we were heading out of the trail.

For those of you who can attend the Trial 101 Class this coming Saturday June 7th, I highly recommend it. I attended this class last year and will be attending again as a refresher.
Oh and all you 3gen 4Runners. This would be a great place to finally meet up everyone.

Glad you like the board here.
Us Washatonian's are spread out pretty good here, but I live about 40 minutes from Greenwater, and that is mainly where I go.
I consider it my home away from home.
Here are some of the runs I catalog when we go.
The oldest are listed first.

ok a few more Q's

when you guys camp out, you have no problem with me and a few friends taggin along, we dont wanna go to whislting jacks, but also dont want to camp buy ourselves, were all 17, dont gotta watch language around us yatta yatta yatta, just curiouse if anyone cares cause im new to the board and all.

and also, the run starts on the 1st,

someone should run a trail 101 on the 31st, just a thought,

anyways thanks for any help you guys have.

ps. im looking for how much it costs to do a solid axle swap. if you have any info PLEASE email me with details on how to do it. thanks
wade

 

It's a family oriented event, bring as many friends as you like. The schedule of the trail class and when/where the runs will happen is almost finalized, we will be posting it soon.

A solid axle swap isn't cheap, it can be done for around a grand but you've gotta have good fab skills and equipment/tools. There's also a good amount of planning to put into it, as well as collecting the axle and other parts. If all goes well I'll be doing the swap on my truck before the event, but it's been in the works for over two years now.

 

I will try to see if I can't lend a hand with this event, as I know the area quite well, and hopefully my stockish rig can be up to the challenge

 

ok, im bringin my whole town just kiddin,

but where do you figure around a grand for the sas.

just wondering how you plan on doing yours and if you could e mail me i would appreciate it alot! thanks for the help.
looking forward to going.

hey, never been on naches trail so dont know what its like but if someone wants some mortars and stuff to bring with us i would gladly bring some, i own a chain of firework stands so it aint no problem for me to scab a couple boxes, let me know if anyone wants to.,

wade

 

Thanks for the offer, but no.

No fireworks in the woods, at camp or on the trail please.

 

i didnt figure so but it was worth asking

laterz

 

I would still like to get hooked up on some deals, but the rangers have a fit, basically having kittens right there in front of you, if you have fireworks out there. The woods are too dry and it ticks off the people around you.
