Great Wheelin' / Trailin' / Muddin' places - Community
I figured we might be able to compile a list of places to go wheelin' and muddin' in Washington, I haven't seen any attempt at this yet, however I'd like to start it off with a legal one.
Exit 38 on I-90 goin' east just before the pass, Theres probably 10 miles-ish of trail, some extreme 4x4ing needed, I got stuck around 1.5 miles up with my 2wd ranger
I know a crapload more places but none of which are deemed 'legal' Anyone else have any ideas/locations?

You were stuck, 2wd up by the fire training school, interesting. Well, I can tell you about a trip Marty and I went on. Started out as a lets take the kids on a sledding trip. Yeah sure, I wound up in the ER with a stretched achellis. Ouch...
That is a good area to drive the longing roads. Near Bonny Lake is a very well known place called Evan's Creek. Lots of Jeep 4x4 trails up there. Won't get me going through there in my truck.

Haha If you take a left (facing easy presumably) instead of a right and follow the road, eventually it splits off into a dirt/gravel road, which then if you keep heading up the face of the mountain turns into quite the unforgivable mudslick I got stuck on something that you could say looked a little like this /\ , haha.

I both love and hate this quote. I don't like it because people don't know what a capable driver can do in a full sized truck, and I love the looks on their faces when they say "How the #$&%# did you get that up here?"

Haha, aint it the truth though. As far as wheelin' places, theres not really trails, but there's tons of old decommissioned logging roads around my house in Glenwood, WA, as well as many that lead right up to Mt. Adams. The state is starting to actually gate them off though, so who knows how long they'll be open.
Here's some pictures of the kind of slop thats back there though. This is my buddy KC's 1996 F350 with 6" of lift and 35" BFG MTs, and this is some of the mild stuff, it gets way worse

Thinking about heading out there tomorrow, haven't gotton off road much but not stupid enough to get myself in a stupid situation...I hope haha. Seems like there are plenty of logging roads to fill my mind and empty my gas tank. I do have 4X4 however and in low she pulls like a beast.

Rock Candy Mountain/Capitol Forest. My buddies and I go down there quite a bit since it's really close to Ft. Lewis. There are tons of trails for atv's/dirt bikes and lots of places to get your truck stuck also. The view from the top is pretty great as well.
Driving directions: Take I-5 south from Tacoma. In Olympia, take hiway 101 north about 5 miles. Then take hiway 8 west about 4 miles. Look for a left turn into Rock Candy Mountain parking lot.
