Keeping an eye on this one and may likely attend; thanks for setting this up! I am going to point the Seattle area recurring meetup at this adventure in lieu of anything we may have done next weekend.
I don't have a CB but can do ham bands and GMRS.
I was unable to RSVP, said I had reached my limit; don't know if that is somehow "me" or if this trip is already at capacity - did not see any other attendees though.

It looks like @Chileno206 didn’t add a number of rigs to the RP, or a lot of the information for that matter. So it’s more than likely not on your end @Greg Eigsti .

Pretty straight forward for quick and easy trip. Do you have any questions?

Hi Greg! Thanks for letting me know. The app still glitches at times. I only have CB radio with me but we can set up another type of communication once we are all together. I hope to see you there! Let me know if you have any questions

Following. I was thinking of doing a different trip this day but might change just to meet up with some different people and see some different terrain. Will talk with my other half and see what she thinks.

Just saw that there is a high wind warning for Leavenworth tomorrow (Tue 10/13) afternoon/evening. I'll make sure to pack a chainsaw if I make it along (am planning on it).
Anybody up for meeting in Monroe/Sultan/Goldbar/etc. for a caravan to Leavenworth Safeway?

Looks like Monroe is 1:35 from Leavenworth and I'm assuming that you will go out Hwy 2. I think I'll gas up in Leavenworth before heading out into the hills. Want to meet up leaving Monroe around 8-ish on Sunday morning @Chileno206? Assume we will meet up with @garrett.goodwin4320 and any others in Leavenworth.
Will plan on bringing a chainsaw and am considering bringing a popup awning for dry-ish lunch time goodness?
Pretty sure I have a couple GMRS handheld radios that I can loan out for the trip.

And swag! @M Rose got me some OB swag to distribute. Make sure to remind me!

I’m going to have to see if I can get my dad to go with. The replacement radiator for my 4Runner that was supposed to show up today was delayed until Sunday. I will keep you posted.

Great! I can be in Monroe around 8:20am jus name the place. Not sure how many are going but I've shared the event in few sites but as long as we have two vehicles I'm fine with that.
You have everything! GMRS sounds good and if you want I can also bring my canopy.

I would really like to make this trip since I haven't been up in that area much. Unfortunately we'll still be harvesting this weekend and I'm supposed to go to my MIL place if I do get time off. If anyone is planning anything up there for next spring keep me in mind, I'd like to check out the area a little more.

I'm definitely interested. This is basically my backyard but I haven't been up there in years. It would also be my first OB trip since joining. I have cb, ham and gmrs capabilities.

You will definitely be on my mind for the next trip Dustin. I’m thinking of putting together a Turkey Day trip... just another day trip, probably up “Tollgate” area. It won’t be on Thanksgiving, but sometime that weekend.

@Greg Eigsti, put the swag in the glove box.

It is! Keep forgetting about it when it would be useful to remember it. :)

@Chileno206 - DM'ed you my cell number for meeting up. I will be running APRS.

How about meeting up at the Highway Auto Supply in Monroe @ 8:20 on Sunday? This is the last business on the right as you head out of town towards Leavenworth. I'll be in a gray Gladiator.

I may be over there Sunday, If so I'll swing by. Sugarloaf is pretty quick, are you going to go out through Maverick Saddle and out Swift Brook? that's a good little day trip.

Hope we meet up! Not sure of the route, I am following @Chileno206. I added a waypoint for Maverick Saddle and noticed this is all pretty close to part of the WABDR, there is a lot to explore in that area! Will send you my cell number.
