Meet and greet, North Raineir area (http://www.ifsja.org/forums/vb/showthread.php?t=116027)

Take a look at this run, a bit south but well worth the time...

Look east, that's the Cascades. Endless wheeling on dem mountains. That's half the fun, just go explore and find new places. Heck, you're near Snohomish, there's gota be tons of stuff near you!

That big girl is not getting to far off the FS roads and if ya do be sure your not breaking any laws...

But if ya want to explore like others have said there are countless miles of FS and fire roads to get into and go seriously deep... I strongly suggest in maps and GPS units that leave and or mark your progress, I have been so turned around in my explorations, without them I would have been genuinely lost.

Heck the fun part is finding and marking cool camp sites, fishing holes and possible hunting areas that feel just right.

ya so just head out early, you can go east or west and start scouting, pack a big lunch and bring plenty of water....

Also if ya get down to the Tacoma area I can take ya pretty deep.

have you ever been to walker valley? You could come with me the next time I wheel there I need to finish building my fsj as a tow rig to haul around my wheeler.

There's always places like Reiter, not too far from you out by index. Or you could always hit some of the FS roads and do some hiking. I'm usually out there every other weekend if you want to join me! Also I'll be doing hte entire Mt Loop hwy real soon as well.

As for Walker, I'd steer clear. First (and last) time I took Meg up there I made it up the upper mainline just fine(suprisingly). Of course the gate at Cavanaugh was closed. After we few hours trying to find another way out we headed back down the way we came. That's when I lost 2 tires, and sustained a fair bit of body damage on my otherwise straight rig.

Everyone I talked to was amazed I had made it up without damage being so wide. All the trails I came across up at Walker seemed more oriented for smaller rigs like quads and baby jeeps.

Rieter has been closed down by the lovable DNR... We are working hard to get it back but as of now she is gated off....

I knew they had shut some of Reiter (and cleared a lot more of it), but I didn't realize they had closed it all.
