The philosophy of this Adventure Series 2004 is to see some "neat" things. There will most likely be some difficult situations, terrain, obstacles, and environment, that we encounter. First and foremost, the ZUKIWORLD adventurer should be prepared and have a good attitude. If your looking for catered meals and 5 star hotels, you will be disappointed. During most of these adventures, we will be camping on the trail, cooking over a fire, and will no doubtedly be dusty and dirty. If this sounds fun to you, sign up now!
July 30-Aug 1 Naches, WA., Shoestring, Funny Rocks, Manastash Ridge.
Dramatic Terrain, many challenging trails that go on forever. In fact, this area has some of the premier trails in the state. Fresh air, good camping, bring bug spray. This will be a 'base camp' type adventure. Pull your rig up to the beautiful campground and then wheel trails in all directions.
Who else is gonna be there iam and iam trying to bring a handfull of other Zuki's whith me ;D

Ok, so let's start talking. So far, I have very little structure planned/wanted. I believe the campground I'm wanting to stay at is on the Little Naches. (It's the one that you take a right on a gravel road right before the fish ladders and is up a small canyon, has a quaint little creek on it that joins Little Naches.) Have to check the map for sure... That's the where... :)
When, gather Friday afternoon, evening. I'll provide a dinner... Saturday go wheeling on Shoestring and connect over with the Moon Rocks and Funny Rocks area....
Who? Well that's the part everyone can work one. I know some of the Gadzuks! club is planning on attending as well as the famous bfunk! ;) Let's start buggin our Suzuki bretherin to get them to go out...

I am probably bringin 2 other zuks with but it is not definate yet ;DBut the more the well you know!

Let's camp on the left. Just across the bridge and then another left. More secluded and closer to trails. Plus I'm going to probably bring my bike and go early or stay late and spend a day riding.

I'm not asking for a head count so I couldn't tell you but I've heard a couple from here and five or so from there so I think it's going to have a pretty good turn out. As for the trails, I think they would be very do-able with one locker and 33 inch tall tires.
Stay tuned for more detail shortly...
See you there, Eric

oh i took the clover run and the bald mountain/Manastash run class 5 CJ trail bone stock with a cage and i played on funny rocks also moon rocks IT IS the washington moabicon ;D

Eric put "The Butt stomper" article back on the website. This is close to the run that this trip will be. There won't be any snow but the same jackass will be leading on the trail. Also, we will be camping at a site and leaving from there. Should be a great time. Eric when you said some Gadzuks were coming did you mean the guys from Cali or eastern WA? It's been years since I've seen the guys from the Yakima area.

Doors? wha-wha-wha-what! You mean if you're on the highway, right? Is that a Washington DMV type rule not a FS rule?
I'd heard about the FS checking exhausts but not the doors. Wow! it maybe a little hot up there with the doors on.
-Eric

last week they told me! ihad to have doors on unless it came with no doors from the factory they called it a a W.A.C. law it is a law created by the federal gov that they can enforce when they feel like it?Do to how many Medi - Vacs in the past two years and roll-overs it is required i was told they dont like people losen there limbs ;D Yeah i was pretty upset to but what are you gonna do? all an all the weather was great and the wind kept it cool and for those who have not been bring a bandana to cover your mouth and nose for when there is no wind the dust lingers
-
I know some of the rangers over there, and they've told me about that law. They also said they would never enforce it on "responsible" wheelers. I asked what that meant and they said as long as you're not drinking or being a "complete jack ass" you'll be alright. My doors will be staying in my garage , so I hope this won't discourage antone from going. Just another reminder we all need to take the time to get to know all the law enforcement when we are out on the trails. I f they remember your name or face and remember you being nice to them... they will be nice to you.

This was told to us by the ORV sheriff 2 weeks ago the  "PNW4WDA" Trail jam participants that would be the  "us"
Im not saying don't bring the doors but don't say i did not worn you :-/
-
Is it the same Sheriff that sits at the funny rocks all day, and drinks beer when someone offers it to him. Don't get me wrong... if more cops drank on the job I might like them all better ;)
Brian

Just wanted to say thanks to all who came out to run with us. And a special thanks to Eric and Sara for making the trip. I know that it turned into a PITA, but they had dinner for us on Saturday night. Thanks to all, and next year I can almost promise that I won't brake a rear axle.
