    NW - Last Minute Trip (4/15)

    Cross posting this so that it gets some exposure... I've decided to just find someplace to go, and go next weekend. Anyone interested? I'm cross posting here, and in the NW Region section. Let's show this weather we've been having that it can't control us!

    Anyone up for next weekend? (4/15)

    I know the weather is still crappy, and it's kind of short notice... But would anyone be up for a quick trip to find a little piece of dirt that isn't covered in snow, or a completely muddy swamp? I'll be testing new gear for my upcoming trip across Oregon, so if you don't think you have the...

    CVT Trailer Build

    So I took delivery of my CVT trailer. I picked it up on Saturday in Portland. Before bringing it home, I had to go pick some people up downtown and go to breakfast. I was pleased to find how easy it was to navigate around the downtown city streets. I have plans for it, but with he...

    Possible Weekend Trip..?

    I was thinking about ducking out this weekend. Either leaving late Friday, or early Saturday with a return on Sunday... I was kind of in the mood to find some place to camp on the coast that I could let the dogs run free. Someplace within 2-4 hours from Tacoma would be ideal... No trailer...

    Hawkins Mountain "Mine to Market" Trail

    Has anyone done this trail? I've seen it listed as Easy, and "More Difficult". Since the scales are based on personal perspective, I figured I would find out if anyone has first hand experience with this trail. How long does it take to get up... is there a good spot to camp at or near the top?

    Oregon people... I am a bit confused

    As some of you may know, I am doing around 1,000 miles of the ORBDR this summer. I'm a bit confused on the different permits and passes that are required. It looks like I need to get in contact with the fire authority of every county I'm going to be camping in to get a permit? When do I...

    Did you know (events calendar)

    That if there is a question mark (?) in the title when you add a calendar event, that the event will not show up in the "upcoming member events" list? Probably shouldn't have a question in the event anyway, but I thought I would mention it.

    Buck Creek (Pierce County), or....?

    Does anyone know if you can still get into Buck Creek? I was thinking about heading out there this weekend to escape the insanity that is Pierce County and any holiday there are fireworks.

    OB Pacific Northwest Trail Run - 2017 Edition

    Here it is! It looks like my procrastination has gotten the best of me. I may need some assistance getting to the campground and getting ahold of the "first come, first serve" spots, as there are no more reservable spots left! Also, I'm going to be on a trip during a fair amount of time...

    Mapping and Collaborative Planning

    I'm not sure if "Communications" is the right place to put this... I recently found while starting to put all the planning together for next summers trip, that Google Drive allows you to put custom maps and the like in it. You can import your GPX and KML files to get detailed routes in, but it...

    Testing the waters...

    One of the pictures that was posted the OB IG feed reminded me of the awesome weekend we had up here last summer. I was thinking maybe we should plan something like that again! A couple thoughts that jumped out were to do the same run as before. Another was that we could maybe do a piece of...

    New Jeep coming to the garage!

    Update: Since the vehicle was ordered, and this thread was created. Chrysler has not been able to build these due to several different lawsuits. In the end, I ended up with a 3.6L v6 Today, I finally pulled the trigger. I've decided to replace my very faithful Cherokee Trailhawk with a new...
