Hope to be there this time.

Look for the fruit stands on your way in. Bing and Rainer. Good prices. Some have fresh pressed cherry cider too.

Same weekend, I have to be in Billings. Was trying to figure how to be in 2 places at the same time.

There may be a couple of us down from Canuckistan.

I will not be there this year. My travel time will be to MPLS for my grandbaby's christening and to inspect what my baby daughter produced. It will be air travel with a stopover in Seattle, middle of August.

BUUUUTTTT . . . I do plan to ship some smoked salmon down to Deep Forest. If you're interested in what I keep going on about, you can taste it there.

For the Canucks going, what is the best way to avoid Seattle and the other busy places along the way?

rodekyll · « **Reply #7 on:** July 14, 2015, 12:10:26 AM »

Come in via Osoyoos and take 97 to highway 12. Right on 12. Left on the forest service road just after Randle, and left again. Can't miss it.

mtwillyman · « **Reply #8 on:** July 14, 2015, 01:21:48 AM »

The Wyphe and I will be there. I'm looking forward to seeing friends I've not seen in a few years, peace.

dlapierre · « **Reply #9 on:** July 14, 2015, 09:21:31 AM »

That's the route I took last year (except for having to veer east to miss fires west of Wenatchee). The ride around Yakima through that desert area was brutal. I was hoping for another route via some of the secondary roads going south from Sumas.

rodekyll · « **Reply #10 on:** July 14, 2015, 01:33:49 PM »

Unless you take the long way 'round and come up through Oregon or Idaho there's no avoiding both Seattle and Yakima.

nosail · « **Reply #11 on:** July 14, 2015, 03:53:13 PM »

We will be going through Sumas down #9 to #2, then towards Monroe. Right on #203 to Fall City then over to Hobart, through Enumclaw onto #410 then #123 then #12 to Randle.

rodekyll · « **Reply #12 on:** July 14, 2015, 05:09:03 PM »

Oh -- I thought you were trying to avoid the metro area. Seattle has spilled out into the Fall City (used to live there)/Issaquah/Enumclaw/Hobart area. Maple Valley is an incorporated city now and highway 18 is becoming an urban commute.

Yakima , isn't that where yak fat is made ?

Dusty

Yakima looks like northern California. Nice river road to it from the east.

Hwy 12 is nice if you don't have a close encounter with an elk who wants to cross in front of you like we did.

There is a good chance that there will be blackbery pies . My picker just picked a couple quarts for his personal use. Now, if I can get him to put down his pipe long enough to pick a gallon for us, we will be eatin' like the Waltons!

Tom · « **Reply #15 on:** July 17, 2015, 11:38:41 PM »

I would be okay with just stuffing my face with them plain.

Pipementor · « **Reply #16 on:** July 20, 2015, 03:00:01 PM »

Was looking to drop by on Saturday evening if you folks will have me. Plan on riding my 79 Honda GL1000 and camping the night. Looking forward to seeing some sweet bikes and chatting with you folks. Not a Moto Guzzi owner yet love the look and the history.
Thanks Adam

A goldwing would dress the place up. Go for it!

The route Nosail spelled out would be best for you, down to Sumas first of course.
Are you thinking of going?

nosail · « **Reply #19 on:** July 20, 2015, 03:45:56 PM »

Roy, are you going this year? Five of us are meeting at the Starbucks in Abbotsford at 7 AM Friday morning. We will stop in Arlington for breakfast.

That looks like a more interesting route. Yes. I'm thinking of going. Mebbe see some other Guzzi's along the route. I plan to leave home early in the A.M., aim to be at Sumas by, say, 8-9 am.

Tom · « **Reply #21 on:** July 20, 2015, 05:40:38 PM »

The mountain passes should be clear but you never know. We just had a bunch of snow on Mauna Kea.

Looks like I will be, I may meet you for coffee and follow down in the second wave.

Diapierre, I sent you a PM

I had full intentions of making this DFC but 320 miles from home my 750 Breva right muffler blew off 20 miles north of Beatty, Nevada.

Took me awhile to find it and I decided this was an omen.

Was lucky enough to make it home Tuesday. Did like the sound of the open right cylinder.

Hopefully next year.............

Kiwi Roy, the Deep Forest Campout thread had not disappeared, just slid down a bit.

If you'd like to use it for "continuity" to report on the event, you can use this thread, and just delete the new one ....

We'd like to hear about it from the folks that were there ....

Lannis

Kiwi_Roy · « **Reply #25 on:** July 27, 2015, 10:24:41 AM »

Thanks Lannis

It would be nice if the rally threads were left pinned for a few days afterwards.

Just reporting John, Corrie Rick and myself arrived safely back over the border. Not sure about Dennis, he went the other way.

Thanks for the great weekend
Roy
