OB Pacific Northwest Trail Run - 2017 Edition

[jdunk]

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 between now and then.

It would be great if there was one or two people that could assist with one or both of the issues that I'm facing.

Please RSVP at the new Rally Page App!!!

Apologies for having to move the location...

I no longer live in WA, but I really should get up there to check on my rental property...

I'll actually be back home when this goes down.

Graham, Washington is where I live, literally just down the road from you @jdunk

I'll be keeping an eye on this thread, as I am 100% interested in this excursion.

That weekend might be bad for me. I am pondering the idea of going to Yellowstone that week. I am going to follow this thread, who knows my plans might change for Yellowstone. If not I will be down for sure. If you need any assistance in the planning or a route test drive let me know.

The WABDR goes right through Ellensburg, which would be a good trip down from Vancouver to hook up with you guys. All though I'm planning to hike the John Muir Trail in the month of August - If my permit doesn't get approved, I would be in.

This looks fun. Nice weekend trip. My oldest boy and me would be down to go, maybe wife and boy #2 as well.

 

[trikebubble]

Yes, certainly interested. Will keep tabs on this thread to see how it moves along. Sounds like it could be a lot of fun. The WABDR ends at the border about an hour from my home, I feel it is a response senility to at least experience a few legs of it at some point.

 

[jdunk]

Sounds like we might have a pretty good turn out.

I'll go back and start making a list of the different people and their interest level. I'll update the first post with relevant information.

Now we just need to get the OB 0000 crew up here!

 

[pierceg]

Def would be interested in this.

 

[jdunk]

It seems that for a single day run, getting through Bethel Ridge with a large number of vehicles will be a good goal.

For anyone that wants to do more of the route (before or after) I'm happy to help with my limited knowledge, I've only done it the once. Early in the 2016 season.

One thing to remember. As this is being planned for August; I would expect that we will have a burn ban in effect for that part of the state.

 

[OCTaconoob]

Pretty far out to say for sure, but I'd be up for this.

 

[CoolMooseMan]

I am definitely interested, and will keep an eye on my calendar. I am from Eugene, OR so anyone coming from the south, we could caravan up there!

 

[takdad]

Count me in. Linking up last year was a hoot.

 

[ce4460]

Ce4460 is down for this trip. Keep me posted.

 

[Trixter404]

I already replied to the other thread but just to make it official, I'm in for this trip.

For you stargazers out there, there's a full solar eclipse cutting through Oregon August 21. OB relevance you ask? Great way to test out those light bars!

Contemplating taking my son out of school to see it.

I'm in!

 

[mcgrp01]

Interested. Would be heading up from PDX. My sister-in-law lives in Yakima, so the wife and I could potentially roll a visit with her into this trip as well...

 

[The_Just]

I'm interested. Coming from South of PDX.
