We will leave Selah around 10 AM and head to toward Dayton maybe picking up other rigs a long the way. We will convoy to Dayton and stop for fuel before heading up into the Blue Mountains in the Umatilla National Forest. We will make our way to the Kendell Skyline Road. We will have lunch on the trail and later find a place to camp along Kendell Skyline Road. The next day we will make our way to Troy and take a swim break. Then we will head north back into Washington and find a camp site for the night. The next day we will head toward Pomeroy and stop at the sights a long the way. Once in Pomeroy we will top off the tanks to head home.

This is three days on easier dirt roads with some sight seeing and two night overland camping. We are spending two night on the trail so you will need to bring a tent, food, and supplies. Bringing extra fuel is encouraged.
