.134 wall? Interesting. What made you go with that?

Sequim is in Northern Washington, Near Port Angeles. They have a lot of Elk their, and Blacktail Mule Deer. They also have a large Christmas tree farm. (I went there to pick up Christmas Trees last year)

 

[Nixter]

Ya, they just moved up there this summer. Not sure if they explored yet. They tell me it's really pretty and that I have to come. Sounds really woodsey.....any places to wheel?

Both of thes are SEVERE understatements. One of the most beautiful places I have ever been to. I went there the week before Turkey day last year, and it was 53 degrees, and just a touch of fog/mist. I'm sure there are places to wheel, but just smelling the air will make you want to move there.

 

[bronczilla]

lots of places to wheel, although all the good trails are getting closed down, Naches is great for rocks, very few good trails left (open).
