Trip Report: Pick Up a Mountain – 9/20/08

Ceg of All Wheelers Off Road Club just posted up a cleanup event held this past Saturday near Manastash Ridge in the Little Naches area off SR410 in Washington state. This area was just one of many clean ups going on throughout the state.

It’s hard to imagine that people, still to this day, with the price of gasoline, drive all the way up in the hills and dump their trash when it would be cheaper to just go to the dump.

Anyway, a salute to all those who participated in the clean up. A job well done..

Operation Shore Patrol, Southern Washington Coast, September 20-21, 2008

Organized by the Pacific Northwest Four Wheel Drive Association, Operation Shore Patrol is an annual cleanup of Washington’s southern coast, scheduled for the weekend of September 20-21, 2008. The goal of Operation Shore Patrol is to focus attention on litter accumulated from water and land sources on Washington’s ocean beaches.

Litter poses a threat to people, fish, and wildlife and creates an unsightly environment. Operation Shore Patrol is a major step in helping to rid Washington’s coastline of litter and debris.

Don’t miss out on this great opportunity to make a meaningful difference, get great exercise, and make new friends. Contact the coordinator for your favorite area below.

Clover Springs Trail Run – 07.14.07

This year was the third year attending the annual PNW4WDA annual jamboree. As in years past, I volunteered to help ARB serve their annual Friday dinner for the event. This is always a lot of fun and a great group of people to work with. They do a great job on putting on the dinner.

WEROCK Rock Crawl – 5.25.07

After a 200 mile road trip, we arrived in the town in Goldendale about 3:00 PM. After checking into the motel, we headed up to the tech area near the course and where a lot of competitors in their RVs were camping out. Had lots of fun hanging out.

Looking forward to the rock crawl competition on Saturday. The weather forcast is for cloudy skies and temperatures in the 80s. The course is very dusty.

I’ll be posting Saturdays pictures late tonight.

Hope to see you there.

WEROCK Western Series Rock Crawl #3 – Goldendale in Review

This year (2006) marked the second year I attended the WEROCK Rock Crawl competition in Goldendale, Washington. Last year, I learned a few things not to repeat. First, don’t drink heavily and expect to function well without sleep and in the heat. Second, bring a lot of water when working on the course and stay hydrated throughout the day. I must be getting old because my body can't handle the abuse that it used to.
