Well the guys from Federal Way showed us from Pendleton and Tri-Cities, Saddle Mountain in Mattawa today. It is great how we all hooked up from this forum. Remember the pictures never do the ride justice.
The guys did not waste any time putting me on the toughest terrain I've ever been on. They took us up a washout that was just nasty! :evil: http://twistys4me.com/video/mattawa.wmv
Going to the top.
Finally made it.
We left and rode to Mattawa's finest Lodge and took a brake.
Would of had a cool one but they were all empty.
I would like to make a derogatory commit but he has a nicer bike than me.
Just taking in the scenery!
We left a lot of skid plate in Mattawa today.
Back to the nasty stuff. This was brutal on the bike and me. Thanks for the help pushing and dragging me up a lot of that stuff. This ride did make me a better rider.

Thanks everyone for posting pictures I whimped out on this ride I think by the sounds of things and by looking at the video of my son it was a good choice for me to stay home on this ride. I don't like sand Of course those rocks would have been a major pain in the bum also. :evil: Maybe we will meet another time. :hide:
