PNW-2010-Second Annual Chehalis River Valley MV Convoy/Camp-Out

[AaronW]

Mike, At this time, I'm leaning towards a run to Morton on Hwy12 and a return on 508 via Onalaska. About a 2 hr round trip + Parade in Napavine to start.

 

[wsucougarx]

Awesome Wow, still 5 months away. Seems like an eternity away. Good time to get some projects squared away in the meantime

 

[elkhunter]

OK wsucougarx! Seattle is where I was born so I will be there bar none! It sounds like a lot of fun! It's a firm commintent!!

 

[srodocker]

if i dont have my brother or gf with me you can ride along if you would like if i do have a full cab im sure there will be people with open trucks

 

[elkhunter]

Thanks srodocker! I'll take you up on your offer,if anything changes don/t worry about it. Appreciate it very much

For Aaron in post #41. Depending on the number and size of vehicles, you might consider a couple of stops along the way, and there will probably be a few pulloffs to let other vehicles by. One good stop might be at Mossyrock dam. There is plenty of pulloff area there.

I would suggest a stop in Morton at Spiffys for Blackberry shakes, then back to Napavine.

Anyway sounds like fun and I am hoping to participate.

Peter L.

 

[wsucougarx]

Did you say Blackberry shakes?

 

[Amer-team]

Yes sir! It is a must stop for me, whenever I go through Morton.

 

[srodocker]

im down for some shakes

 

[elkhunter]

Your on! Me too! Hey srodocker,AaronW,wsucougarx, We are bringing out our 5th wheel and are going to be leaving our trailer at an RV campground ( Lake Sawyer RV Resort) We have a membershixp there. It's on Highway 164. Will this be better for us to commute to the campout and convoy? Hoodsport seems to be far away from where we need to be!We can also stay at Mossyrock at the Lake Mayfield Ressort,at Randle at the Cascade Peaks Resort, or at Silver Creek at the Paradise Resort . Which of these would be the best and close to the function? Thanks!! elkhunter

 

[AaronW]

elkhunter, Silver Creek and Mayfield are both about 20-25 minutes away. The lake would be a great place to visit if you have any watercraft with you. The convoy will be passing through Silver Creek.

Consider this option....You could stay up at Cushman and then move to my "back 40" on Thursday or Friday. I have an RV dump available. No power unless we run a really long cord for 120. If you have a genny, could be a good and free option. I do have two 3.5Kw units that I would fire off for power. If you have any loose fillings you want out, they will work!

We are the middle property ringed with trees. The cook/camp out will be near the center lone tree. The RV dump is at the bottom left corner.

Sounds good to me AaronW! Can i get confirmation on my reservations with you? I have 2 Generators,no hookup for elect needed. Sounds good! Thank you for the offer! elk

The spot is yours for the taking. Last year we had about 6 people camp for Saturday night. Most were in tents. odnorth won the "real man" contest, he just had a bag and pad in the open bed of his M35A2.

With the parade lineup around 9-10am on Sat., I expect we may have a few people show up to stay on Friday evening.

 

[elkhunter]

I'll bring some elkburger!!!

 

[srodocker]

i most likley will be staying sat night probley in my trailer

 

[Josh]

I'll have to see if I can get that friday/sat night off. If I cant get friday off, I'll have to do the same thing as the mini rally. Just drive up after I get of work.

 

[srodocker]
