i know this is kinda short notice but im thinking about running lola pass road from hwy 26 to hood river, either tomorrow afternoon, or sunday sometime(depending on if people give imput and or what the wife says, im leaning more on the sunday time). its a nice drive, with some great places to take pics(yes i know its gonna be stormy, but thats just a plus for us PNW folk). if you have not made this drive before its a must imo. its not hard, a 2wd can do it easily (unless there is snow -and this time of year, no snow yet). i am gonna do a take my time deal, taking some glamor shots of the truck and the like.

i also want to do this a little later in the year around the time of the first snow fall, i want to get pics when the snow is just a dusting on things, and its still very very driveable. after a serton time they close the road down for the winter, cause the snow gets too deep and the road becomes impassable to most rigs. if you want to do either on of these runs let me know, we can work up something and smooth out the details

-ill post this up in a few other places as well to make sure everyone gets the opportunity to see it.

DAMN!!! If I wasn't still in the middle of unpacking a house, I'd jump right in. I don't think I'll be ready for any good trips until I finish unpacking and building the garage. Now that I don't have a 10 bay shop to play in, I've gotta make something here to do my mods in.
 
no worries, im still planning on doing the fist snow run, or early snow run... i just wanta go up there in the storming weather, and check things out, take pics ect, its also a nice drive in the late spring early summer lots of snow run off and high creeks/streams
 
im gonna run this again tomorrow, just got word back from a friend, that there is some snow(8+/-") at the 4000' level, but its all gone by 3000', the pass is at just over 3400' so their should be some good snow. let me know if you want to tag along, again this is last min but i wanta get some good pics before the snow gets too deep or too many people go through
