Possable PNW Dune Trip

[Josh]

I was planing on going to the sand dunes one of the weekends in NOV. Was wondering if anyone else wanted to go? Ive taken my deuce to sand lake many times and other then 1-2 hills, they can go just about anywhere out there. Its about 2 hours by deuce from Portland. I normally take my cruiser with me when I go. So if ya wana go and have atvs/rails, bring 'em along. I havent set a date yet but I normally leave friday after work, come back sunday afternoon.

If there is any interest let it be heard, Id like to have some other MVs to play with there someday.

Had some ideas of seeing who can drive up a hill the furthest, or who knows.

That sucks scott. Maybe another time.

If no one is interested in doing it in nov, maybe Decemeber?

Heck I would be in! I would love to get that 5 ton out there with some other people capable of helping if needed. No ATV's, but I am an awesome camp cook.

As always, get pics!

I got alot of picts from the last trip, they are just stuck on my buddies camera as he is lazy.


I think the 5ton would do great in the sand with some aired down tires.

I aims to find out! I have 275 gallons of WMO, WVO and gas mixed up in a huge tank just waiting for it's turn to burn through my engine! I plan to pump 100 gallons into 2 barrels strapped into the bed and hit the road.

You wont need that much. In a 3 day trip down there, I burned threw aprox 60 gallons on the trip there and back, and playing in the dunes. I know you 5tons burn more fuel, but I dont think you need to bring 150 gallons of fuel. Maybe 1 extra drum. Besides, even with it strapped down, I'm not sure how the sherrifs will react to that much flamibale liquid bouncing around in the back iof a truck.

 

[jpekarek]

Makes sense, I can just fill up with 75 gallons and bring 1 drum extra, that's 130 gallons, plenty. They wont see it!

Dont think a Nov date is going to work, Anyone down to go in December or Jan?
