Tacoma Wa.
Now that I have my Trac Bar ,Upper Control Arm where it should be.
My plan is to leave early to get to CleElum 9-9:30 then out to Liberty ,do some trails on the west side of Hwy 97 then go to the east side for more trails then home.
Anyone care to join me ??
 
I'd sure love to, but that is the day the wife and I are heading for Yellowstone and the black hills. But if you are up to it, would like to try that some time in July or August as I've never been to the Liberty area. :)

where on 97 is that? i dont have a map handy....im in klamath falls. any idea how far?

Mapquest says:

Total Est. Time: 7 hours, 59 minutes

Total Est. Distance: 413.03 miles

 
If I can afford it after the 10th run, I wouldn't mind trying Liberty out. Some family friends have 8 or so acres in Teanaway I may stay at Friday night and Saturday night, so it wouldn't be too out of the way. We'll see though.
 
wow I thought klamath falls is east of troutdale, I need to get to know the area more....

I could be talked into it till Oct.
 
R U going to meet @ the Cottage or the Liberty Cafe? I've been lookin for an excuse to take the RV over the pass. I'd probably spend the weekend there. Where's your favorite campground?
 
We will be stopping at the Safeway 1st, then probably the final join-up will be the Liberty Cafe.
There is 2 choices on the road to liberty, After turning off of Hwy 97 toward Liberty the 1st road to the Right[ approx 3/4 of a mile ] is a Forest Service type camp area with pit toilets .If that area is busy, cross the creek and turn right on a dirt road to some more area.
On the main road before you get to the gravel road ,on the left is a big open field area,alot of people stay here on busy Holiday weekends,we do. Pull in pick an area in the open or trees.
Are you taking your xj or do you want to be a Passenger to see the area first?
I was actually thinking about getting ahold of you.
