I can dig it.

I really like the first one. You should blow it up and put it on your wall like a poster.

Yup thats the spot, we didn't go up that road, we just turned back around the other car I was with couldn't make it across, plus the roads were still covered in snow. Are there any good trails pass that point.

There's not a heck of a lot out there. One decent hill climb, but the rest is just FS roads and most of them are gated now

Yeah there's surf up here. It get's pretty good, and it's not crowded, but waters cold which is fine with me.

Not trying to jack your thread, but did you lose much in the way of gas mileage with the lift and tire choice? Most people are running 285's with that lift and seem to lose some mileage. That is one nice looking rig and what I would like to do to mine, when I finally find the one I want.

Nice pics, looks like a fun crossing there.

How far from Cle Elum lake?
I towed my old tent trailer and canoe up there back around '92 or '93.
Beautiful area up there.

What a beautiful place to wheel. Wish there was a place like that in Iowa, so I could see what my Runner could do!

Its' not that far past Cle Elum Lake, off of highway 903, which runs on the eastside of the lake. It's the first left after the lake if you're heading from 1-90. its was my first time up there, and it was really beautiful. gonna head back there next month.
