Define wheeling? Besides Moon and Funny Rocks, Naches is tame. I think under 33's and a locker when it is dry will do just about everything.

Depends on what trails you hit.

Regardless I think the rocks make it all worth it!

Naches's has the rocks, nice camp ground and a pretty drive to get there. I will agree that in early September there wasn't anywhere trail wise I couldn't go on 32's and a front locker but the shear volume of trails is hard to match now that May creek is closed off to us.
Index wall up at reiter is cool at the end but the trail isn't horribly extreme and way too short. Probly the biggest variety here year round maybe because I know this area the best. I think we have been shut down night wheeling wise with the new rules. You can camp at Wallace falls just up the road and in the past couple of years they added those nifty little cabins so crummy wheather wouldn't be a problem.
Walker was pretty crazy but I've only ever been there at 1:00 am in the rain with a broken tie rod or in 3' of snow. It is the furtherst north of the three however but no where very close with good camping. Just my 2 cents worth.

I think when was up at the clean up (May?) I was reading the posted rules in the parking lot and there was somthing about no use of the trails past sun down. Don't know if they are enforcing it or not but I was kinda bummed. Anyone know for sure?

A few of us north end folks have talked about heading up to your neck of the woods to do the same thing. I think a trail swap idea is a great one!!

Most of the ones mentioned are all good and you could easily spend a full day at any of them and have a very good time, no matter what type of rig you have.

Put a few dates in front of us and we can put something together for you.

There are 2 or 3 threads with the updates of the DNR and Reiter, you can read them at your leasure. Yes, Reiter is closed for night wheeling. Yes they are ticketing for infractions and giving warnings.
