Plans are in the works... hoping for something smaller this year. But most likely it'll happen Saturday Nov 17th if the cold stays in town. We'll know more by probably sat or sunday

5th Annual Twin Lakes run, get 'ye Snow on!

Alright alright.. after getting PMs after PMs about this.. I guess I should spill the beans.

YES there will be a twin lakes run!

Coming to whatcom county, TBD -- the first snow run of the year up to Twin Lakes near Mt. Baker

But when? That when is going to be soon. Can't say quite when, but probably Saturday November 17th or Sunday November 18th. Models and snowfall totals are indicating it should be a good run where we can get to the lakes.

So post up if you can go, I'll keep a list here. If you wanna see the epic post of previous years, click here..

I guess we should do something special since its been 5 years. Ideas?

Requirements
Tires with GOOD tread / works in the snow
Must have a license plate
at least one locker*
food
sled? snowboard for the kids? its a fun ride down if you're a passenger!

And who?
I'd like to keep it a bit smaller this year, and if the signups get large, I'd like to divide it up so everyone can have fun and not be stuck from trail plugs :haha:

What to expect
Last year was our biggest showing by far, with almost 45 rigs in two weeks ranging from locked built jeeps on 42's to a open/open stock cherokee. If we have a good range of vehicles, the ones less equipped can make it up if they stay towards the back.

Last year. November 12th (Made it to lakes), November 19th (made it to 4th Switchback), November 20th 2010 (made it to the lakes), November 14th 2009 (made it 1 mile past Yellow Aster butte trail). December 15th 2008 (made it to the lakes).

Where? Meet up spot and Breakfast
The 'Chair 9' for breakfast at 8:00AM -- they have a 5.95 all-you-can-eat breakfast buffet! We will be DEPARTING AT 9:00AM SHARP

Directions: http://g.co/maps/f2sh3

Dinner
North Fork Brewery on the second trip was EPIC! Its too bad we cannot get reservations, but it seems that going there after 6pm works pretty well. After having a few beers and pizza and bullshittin, we left just before 8pm.

Depends on how low the snow is but the last couple years wouldnt have been good for a 2wd with crappy tires. I know Andy did it 2 years ago in a 2wd tow rig with a POSI and good off road tires but was raping it to get out of where we were parked lol
