Witch one would be the first stop and what route from one to the other were your plans?

I was trying to find a route from the green pin to the purple pin then travel the rest of that rout. But I don't think it can be done in the same time or less then route 1.

I've never wheeled Evans and Elbe back to back, so I'm not sure on the logistics between the two. However, it looks like maybe a 1.5 hour drive between the two.

To get to Evans I've always taken I5 to 512 to 410, and then 162. It's about 2.5 hours from Woodland. I really enjoy the trails at Evans. They're not hard by any means, but they're tight and technical. Definitely a good change from TSF.

We get to Elbe from the South by I5 to 12 to 7. It's just under 2 hours form Woodland. Elbe is also a small park, but the trails are a lot more difficult and have a good variety to them.

I think it would be fun to run them back to back, starting at Evans.

The only downside I see is the need for both a Northwest Forest Pass (Evans Creek), and a Washington State Discovery Pass (Elbe Hills).

So who's up for an OktoberFest IronMan Weekend?

Thank you Mr. President and all your minion scum that voted you in to office. Thanks to you, my wife and kids health insurance will almost double in price on January 1st. and the crap that you offer from your so called affordable care act is about the same price for higher deductibles and more out of pocket.

I hope the people that voted for him choke on his dong! Maybe next time they vote for someone that will work for the people and not just dictate the people.

Rant over.

I'm so glad that my insurance is locked into a contract. I really wish that the government would stop creating entitlement programs that enable people to sit at home and benefit from all of us that have jobs.

that combo will last forever oh and leave the 3.07 gears in it to take some stress off the axles LOL think of all the ground clearance this mod works best on a MJ so you have a bed to haul spare parts
