I want to give a big thanks to the scrappy core folks who've watched this series and other videos this year! I hope they've been worth your time. Your messages and support mean a ton. The conclusion (Part 3) of this series is on the way! I hope to get it done as quick as possible... I'm shooting for Sunday, December 10th. And I think I'll release the entire trip as one long "movie" on Christmas Day for anyone who'd like to watch the entire adventure.

From what I can find, chumstick comes from Chinook Jargon. Chum meaning “painted or marked” and stick meaning “tree”. Fun fact, that’s why we have a type of salmon called chum, with their distinctive red markings.

We've done Sections 1 and 2. Section 1 is super easy, just a gravel road with some potholes. Section 2 was way more fun. We ended up taking a detour to Manastash Ridge Observatory and camped out on the ridge just below the observatory with an amazing view, then backtracked to Section 2 and finished it up the next day. On a side note, the secret camping spot on Bethel Ridge (part of section 2) is really worth it. We hope to do Section 3 next month (June 2024) on our way to Northwest Overland Rally in Plain, WA. Probably will spend 1 night on section 3 just to split it up. Heard the washout is fun. :) Great video, thanks for sharing your experience!

It is similar, but the difference is the elevation between the two states. Washington is not as high and less mountain peaks. I am hoping to get Jason out to Colorado one of these days to see the difference.

@@aevnate4140 You'll have to get him out here next season. We're snowed in at this point (currently snowing actually) so no upper mountains until May or June next year! You should take him on Imogene for sure, but the Rim Rocker trail is also pretty awesome and great for overlanding. There's just too many amazing trails to pick from, lol.

No this is a horrible place. Gas is $12 a gallon, heards of rabid bears & bats. There are no places to buy food. We have the worst hunters ever that enjoy bagging their limits on KO2's. Multiple Multiple forest road tolls were people are driving 90mph at all time of night and day. Free range cows that visiouly stamped through roof top tents. Raccoons with night terrors. Eomaing conmunes of purple haird granola heads. We have fruit fly bans. Yes WA is a horrible place please stay home and only watch the KZitem.
