Dayton Road Trip: The Batmobile is cleaned up and ready for a road trip. My wife and I have not taken a trip without the kids in a long time. So we decided to leave our teenagers at home, go out to breakfast, and head to Dayton to visit their city. We plan to eat lunch in Dayton and then head back home by going a different direction.

On Saturday March 19th 2022 we met at the Shell Station in Kittitas for the annual Top Member Challenge. We topped of our fuel and headed to Colockum Road. It was raining as we headed up Colockum Road. A few miles up Colockum Road we stopped to air down and the rain turned to snow. This was supposed to be a snow wheeling trip but it wasn’t looking good for deep snow. Scott decided to take his F150 up to see how well it would do.
Up on top leaving the power lines, we were disappointed to find there was not enough snow for the challenge. There was still enough to play in coming up in front of us so we moved up.
We took a break at Halfway Station. We left the F150 there and headed down the ridge. We drove on north down Colockum Road and stop to look down at the Columbia River, Crescent Bar, and the Quincy area. The wind was cold there so we decided to head back and have lunch in the trees.
After lunch we headed back up Colockum Pass. We stopped at the Colockum Wildlife Area Plaque.
Back at Halfway Station TJ40 pulled Scott’s F150 back out on the road since it was stuck there.
On the way down toward Kittitas we all played on the road driving where there were no tracks in the snow for the 4×4 snow wheeling adventure. Scott got his F150 stuck first. TJ40 pulled Scott’s F150 and then Scott pulled out my YJ. I got stuck trying to crawl through the deep stuff with little 30×9.50 KO2s.
Back at the power lines we turned off Colockum Road. We ran Brushy Road, Beacon Road, and out Parke Creek Road. We aired up down at the parking area before parting ways.
This was a great time thanks to all who came.
Here are some photos of the trip:
