Default Conditions update

Here is a quick conditions update. I went up to Chinook summit yesterday and hiked around in the snow. There was around 6 inches or less at the summit. and once you hit the east side there was very little snow at all. The report for 5500 feet elevation shows around an inch possible for today and tomorrow and then no snow until Friday, which only has a chance of snow. That means there will probably be some snow towards the summit but it should not be very deep and we probably wont see much at all in the lower elevations.

Hey guys! New here to the forum. I just read all 18 pages of this post and am thinking about going this Saturday. Me and 10 other jeeping buddies ran the Naches trail this past weekend of Novemeber all the way up to Ravens roost by the cell towers and it was an amazing run. There was about 2-4" of snow and it was a very fun run.

I'll see if any of my buddies with jeeps would like to go as well and I will be towing my xj with my 04 cummins up to bonney lake. Either way, just letting you guys know that we had two guys with stock tires and LSD rear that made it. Only thing that broke was a lower control arm bracket ripped off the unibody of my buddies jeep. Kinda funny actually.

Anyways, looking forward to possibly meeting you guys on saturday!
