Hi Hoopy,

 

My wife and her sisters were just out rafting on the White Salmon....pretty river.

 

Are you new to the area?

 

Will this be a first trip to the Olympics ?

 

Welcome to WTW.

Search for “Bird Creek Meadows Mt Adams”

It may still be closed due to fire a few years ago, but is spectacular when in bloom. There was a small fee to help the reservation defer their costs but worth it.

Hi David,
Slow to respond sorry ! The white salmon river is great to have in your back yard I must say with appreciation of it we have fond memories on hot days. I have lived here in the area since the late seventies. Thanks for the welcome 😊.
It will be my first trip with my wife to the Olympics. I used to spend a lot of weekends in neah Bay Area diving many fond memories of that and a little on the oregon coastal well. Neah bay was pretty sweet. So I have flashed down the coast to Home here, but not just taken a bit of time with my wife and enjoyed it. What part of the Ore. coast ?

Appears closer to The Dalles then WS.  Spent 6 fantastic weeks in WS and Bingen last summer.  WS is without a doubt one of favorite places on Earth!

Advmoto,
Hey think I talked to you one day up near the laundromat.White truck ...lab cozied in the back seat of a four for PU. You were on your own just got your wife off to go home via plane sound like the right perso?!
You gave me a tour of your set up. What a great set up thx you!! We were then in the market for a FWC then. now we’re customizing our own to meet our needs. Yes I feel lucky to have been in the white salmon valley for the past 40 years. I just got back from the store ran into someone who has lived in his fleet for a a year!!..always interesting to talk FWC people

Hi Hoopy.

 

That was me...and Sage.

 

At the time we met you, Sage and I had been living in the camper nearly 3 months.  It's a very comfortable life style when you get the technique down to the basics.

 

If I had it to do again, I would build-out a shell to my specs and needs.

 

We lost Sage to brain cancer in October;  very quickly.  I now have her sister Soli;   in my profile pic to the left.  Soli is a great girl just like Sage.  Their breeder gifted her to me after Sage died.

 

We love WS and that area of the Gorge.  Hope to visit next spring/summer making our way through northern MT and ID down to WS.
