Manastash/Wenas area. We tried to make it to Tripod Flats, but were stopped by snow. It's very mazelike in that area, and at anytime you can get stopped by snow or a gate. In a few weeks it will be open and easy to navigate.

BTW, I want some of my tilt back (see original horizon in picture above). Mike took his picture from inside the truck pointing downhill and titled himself. That was starting to slide into the trail rut which was at door height. (no choice as the mud just look us for a ride anytiime it wasn't flat).

manashtash is southeast of ellensburg.

All of the roads we were on can be navigated using a Wenatchee NF map available at the any Wenatchee NF ranger station.

BTW Bryan, I've used most of my waypoints from that trip to figure about 5 trails. Do you have any you can send me to fill out some of the gaps?

[wqbang]

Absolutely! I need to pull them all off my GPS. Remind me please!
