it is dougan falls washougal washington it really depends what you like if you like muddy rutty roads i would go after it rains heavy up there. its a really cool drive up there on a nice sunny day with no clouds the roads can be bumpy sometimes but i go up there a lot with my outback and it survives with just some toyos if you ever wanted to meet upand go up there in a group i always go up with friends. if you have any ? just keep writing or i can give you my number oh and if you go after its been cold and rainning it snows up there so its a two in one dirty/mud with snow up top

driving on some back roads and getting dirty sounds fun. Iv been trying to find a good place like that here, but havent had much time or luck with it. If we could get a decent size group together this would be great

it looks like you will be a good fit for our greoup so i think in two weeks or so we are going to do a drive to the back roads. so pm me if you want a lot more info about this. where we will be going is miles and miles only dirt and gravel roads that zig and zag in the washogle woods next to the clearist water you will ever see. but enough about the nature. on the roads you can drift slide and race all up and down them. oh and best thing about it no cops no people and best of all no speed signs !!!!!!!!

have you been to "the bowl" or driven up out to ketchum, lots of muddy areas out in the sticks if you go out far enough.

oh yeah haha good times at the bowl. when I first got my subie I got it up to the bowl, check out my members ride thread theres some pics from it. and I havent been out ketchum for probably a year. I wont even try to get my car up to the bowl anymore, not anything to do up there and its gotten alot worse in the last 2 years. but I should go check out ketchum though, I just dont want to find someplace with a really bad road and mess something up

where are thous places? do you have the address?

no address, ketchum is just a road way out past town, and the bowl is just a chunk of land in town, I forgot what the name of the street is to turn onto, theres a few ways to get there and its pretty simple

i was up in the ketchum area a few weeks ago. on the way up there there was still snow on the road in the shaded areas. i did not got all the way through because it will take you to HWY 35 and i did not feel like getting stuck somewhere. on ketchum rd from the split off that takes you to mosier, if you go straight past the cattle grates it does get bumpy and i did get my car very dirty. i have actually never been to the bowl someone would need to actually show me where it is because i cannot find it.

Go up cherry heights, take a right at st Peter's cemetery onto w 13th. Just a little ways after it goes from a one lane to a two lane take a left at Kingsley and go up until it's a dead end. On the right there is a dirt road that is 16th street infront of the house up there. Drive down the dirt road until you see the water tower on your left and your there
