Elbe Hills and Evans Creek are two of my all time faves for western WA.
Elbe hills is about 5 mins out of elbe
Evans creek is somewhere near Buckley

Reiter's pit isnt all that great imo, gets boring. Same with Tahuya (Out of Belfair)

Also, idk what you wheel but if you dont mind a little body damage there are a ton of WA guys here on YT we get together (try to at least) all the time for some wet dirty trail runs.

Reiter was so much better before they started closing all the trails. Really blows and can get repetative fast. Unfortunatly I havent been to many other places but Naches is were I want to hit up real soon. Ive already missed a ton of runs out there and hear onl good things. I heard Evan creek is kinda boring but thats from Bobby longfield who told me that so ya maybe to him

I love evans but its true what bobby said lol, its mostly stuff you can do on an open front. I walked through the hardest core trails but a lot of it is technical you gotta pick the perfect line.. thats why i like it

Yeah its very beautiful, 311 is a really mild run that has a good view point it links you to the other trails. My favorite was 197 then theres another "difficult" one that i havent run yet.

197 has a switchback so be ready for some tree pivots and body damage

Edit: My trucks down for the time being but id be glad to show you around (as best i know) in a few weeks.

Als got "jeepital warts" !!! thats why his truck is down. he's lookin for some auto penecilin. Isn't 6200 closed because of fire danger? or atleast last i was there last 2 weeks ago i think..

Reiter or Tahuya. Walker Valley is probably gonna give you more body panel mods than you'd want.
