LandRonB Posted March 9, 2012 Report Share Posted March 9, 2012 I've done the Oregon Discovery Trail twice now; perhaps in the future plans to do the Washington Back Country Discovery Route. Route Map: http://www.wabdr.com/Map Start from the Oregon/Washington border, cross the State of Washington, and end at the border to British Columbia, Canada. DVD, map and tracks avail for $24.95: http://www.touratech-usa.com/Store/PN-091-0210/DVD-Washington-Backcountry-Discovery-Route-Expedition-Documentary Anyone here have done this before? Might be a good baby step before the Alaska trip [video=youtube;jm2qg4MDuGc] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
astateofmike Posted March 9, 2012 Report Share Posted March 9, 2012 I have yet to even make it to the Oregon Backcountry and now we have already moved on to a new travel vehicle.... Need to find some time and get my Dad to come along. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Need to find some time and get my Dad to come along. Perhaps this trip can be open to "all" vehicle types including Subarus and Volkswagens (smile)! No Jeeps though (he! he!) - j/k. Will even let Toyotas in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will even let Toyotas in. Did Aaron, aka Toyota Riff-Raff, tell you what his day job is? He owns a Subaru shop. Yes, I already hit him up to be a sponsor for the annual event, said we had a handful of members with Subarus EDDs/wive's cars, and they would love an oil change GC...haven't heard back yet. We'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LandRonB Posted March 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2012 Thanks for asking Aaron. Subaru I see - might have to hit him up for service deal. Where is his shop located? And is it a delearship or indy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jen Posted March 9, 2012 Report Share Posted March 9, 2012 Indy. It's here in SJ, near where 87 crosses Almaden (my hood). You need to come hang out with us when you have to work out of your satellite office down here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HMBRover Posted March 10, 2012 Report Share Posted March 10, 2012 Too bad it doesn't hook up with the Oregon Backcountry Discovery Route. That would be quite a trip. Actually we have done less than half of the Oregon Discovery route going North. It goes into Washington near Walla Walla, way east. I've done the Oregon Discovery Trail twice now; perhaps in the future plans to do the Washington Back Country Discovery Route.

If the Alaska trip doesn't pan out next year, I might be interested in leading an Oregon trip. Now that I'm equiped w/a ham radio and better GPS system (Baja Claw 540c), I am game!

HMBRover Posted March 11, 2012 Report Share Posted March 11, 2012 I was thinking it might be time to go back to Oregon. Let me know how I can help. I've got most of the stuff from our previous trips up there. If the Alaska trip doesn't pan out next year, I might be interested in leading an Oregon trip.

LandRonB Posted March 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2012 Sounds good Brian. Going to be asking for a head count for the 2013 Alaska trip by our 2012 Oct Annual Gathering w/plans in mind ea participant to purchase their ferry ticket by December; if we don't get a min of two trucks going to Alaska, would like to suggest Oregon or even this Washington Backcountry instead.
