2 days in counting until we load up and head out for the Saturday opener for elk! :IBCOOL: Hows it looking up 1701 road outside of Naches?? We are hoping for some weather this year but not holding my breath. Good luck to you all.

Been a bit of logging in there the last few years.  I haven't been up that road this year so maybe someone can chime in on the log truck activity, if any.
Look man, some times you just gotta roll the dice

It isn't bad. It was graded in the spring. No controlled burning up there this year. If you have any other questions, pm me.

I was chasing white up there this year and it wasn't snow. Oh man, you saying I can't road hunt once in awhile...I don't think my kids can keep up if I took them on the hikes.

HI,anyone hear about B.B.G flat's,in 342

Drove past it on Maloy rd, which is open now, during muzzy season and seen about 10 camps maybe? Almost 90% of people I talked to on the way out of the 1701 didn't know Maloy was reopened. Nice comfy road from wenas rd to BBQ flats. :chuckle:

Was a zoo this year. I'm not sure if it was Elk Hunting or a 4x4 4 wheeler Jamboree......The off trail crap was out of hand this year. Dudes shooting guns on Friday before the opener. Not sure why I do it, but I do it.
