Official "Mt. St. Helens 09" SIGN UP!
 

Date: Saturday September 20th
Start Time: Meet at 10am, Drive starts at 11am
Starting Location: I-5 Exit 63 (Washington 505) Shell Station/ View Point


With the great success of last years "Columbia River Gorge Drive," Mark and I (not to mention Joy and Jill) are at it again!

We will be meeting 1/4 mile west of the I-5 exit 63 off ramp. Look for the Shell Station/ Viewpoint. It affords plenty of parking and is the only building around (easy to find!). For those North of us (Seattle area, ect) we hope you will save 1hr+ of drive time :eek:

From there it is approx 50 miles up and 50 miles back from our destination, with several stops in-between, scenery that is amazing, and will all end at a nice little Authentic Mexican resturaunt (Mark and I "tested" it today). The resturaunt is willing to make accomadations for us, but I need to call with a general idea of attendence, so please sign up as soon as possible! Being approx 100 miles round trip, we classify this as a little more "casual" then usual, but still 100% as awesome.

We will be looking to make the resturant by 5pm and ending there. The resturant is approx. 2.5 miles from our starting point, and will make a very easy spot for us to depart so everyone can get home nice and "early" :p

One more note, our main destination does require a parking fee/admission fee. So please come prepared, but trust us, it is well worth it, and to anyone who remembers last year, Mark and I are again looking into making sure you'll have something to cherise every day for making the trip ;)

We are probably "good to go" for a tour on the 20th, I hope...

I wanna stop at the coffee stand by the mexican restaurant (I ate there, it was pretty good) and the tacky souvenir shop across the street. :)

Cool - we are starting to get a good group together for this one. Should be a great time. :D

We need to get a schedule of where to pick up cars as we head south. That way we can get a good group going down. ;) :cool:

Re: Official "Mt. St. Helens 09" SIGN UP!
 

Always a fun way to extend our meet time even further and put on a good I-5 parade. :cool:

So far in theory we have:
2 cars coming down from Burlington area
1 car coming from Marysville
1 car coming from east of Everett
2 cars coming from Ballard
1 car coming from Olympia

Hey 7 out of 11 coming from the North! :D Is everyone up for Earl's idea?
