Greenwater Snow run 12/30/06
I am wanting to go up to greenwater saturday. It won't be anything that crazy considering I am in an almost stock rig. We would meet at the safeway in Enumclaw at 9:00am

Well, Jim just informed me he is going to the doc tomorrow.
I still want to go, but I can only go for an hour.
I like to go around 9 am.
I am a morning person, and I run out of steam early
I will know more later, I was suppose to take off an hour ago to do a few hours of chores here.
The Internet has me trapped today.

Now we are talking Saturday
I have 12 days off for Christmas from work, wish I could have got up already, but catching up on lost sleep and other stuff here takes priorities over wheeling.
Can we try to shoot for Saturday?
And I will be cutting out early, have stuff to do.
Usually when we have gone up 70 before in the snow, we can not go to high.
We have made it to the gravel pit, and beyond on 70, all the way up to the parking lot of the right where the restrooms are for the hiking trail into the twin lakes.
I would not recommend the road out of the gravel pit that is the road we come down into the pit when we do the 72 to 70 loop.
I bet they have several feet of snow up there right now.

You might wanna call the White River Ranger Garret.
I just did, and the gravel pit has 7.5' of snow there now.
She told me we can only drive up the FS road about a mile, then you need to purchase a SnoPark Permit to go any further.
I am not to sure if she is familiar with trucks that go up there, as she told me you can not wheel up there at all, and I called her on that and said we go 4wheeling all the time up there in the spring and summer.
360 825-6585
All other roads up there are either closed due to storm damage, or wild life preservation.
FS Road 74 use to be a good one too, she said that is closed from storm damage.
She said Evans Creek is open, but I am not familiar enough with the area, have only tooled around on the FS roads there, and not the trails.
I imagine they have a ton of show too, and I am not going to run any of their trails.

if there really is 7.5' of snow that is crazy because I drove to the gravel pit like a week and a half ago after snowboarding and there was only a trace of snow there and I thought that snowpark permits were only for snowmobile parking lots
