Pacific Northwest Backroad Adventures -
Slab Run
April 4th, 2009


The Pacific Northwest Backroad Adventures Group invited the All Wheelers Off Road Club on their Slab Run on Saturday April 4th, 2009. The PNWBA met up in Zillah for breakfast and plan to meet up with us at the Slab. Most of th AWORC got there after the PNWBA group did.

Once we all met up, we headed over toward Flex Canyon.

We went there by going on the Power Pole Canyon Trail.

Gonna have to check that place out after some work on the red truck. Mostly getting the MT/R's on it and doing some front end work...

Clay, sounds like a good run. PP's have to get up that way one of these days.

The Slab is a hole in the wall but fun. It is a good place to play for a change in scenery or to test out your rig before taking on trail.

What are the requirements out there? Can you ride quads and dirtbikes? Do you need a flag if your on a quad? Looks like fun.
You can follow me.... but it's gonna hurt ;)

This is a dirt bike riding area where quads and rigs can come. You only have to have tabs and a Spark Arrester to ride there. No flag needed.
