I'm in! However, with recent events ( :cry: ), I'm not up to driving. I'll be happy to ride shotgun for anyone with a spare seat.

Come on out for our May off-road club run on Sunday May 25th

What - A one day off roading adventure up to the north end of Chehalis Lake.
When - Sunday May 25th meeting at 9am, departing at 9.30am sharp. Back on the highway around 5.30pm.
Where - Meeting at the Subway Restaurant on Highway 7, Mission (Lougheed highway & Dewdney Trunk Road) at 9am, grab some Subway breakfast and a take out lunch - There is a gas station (Co-Op) that does Petrol and Diesel next to the Subway. If fuel is needed, fuel up first when arriving.

Looks like a great outing!!

Which route did you take? I'm guessing it was via Harrison West?

We went up the west side of Chehalis Lake on Sunday and the FSR is artificially blocked (completely impassible) just after the Skwellepil Creek Recreation Site. Is this the original blockage after the landslip or has it been recently blocked again?

Investigated a couple of logging roads south east of the lake and came across a couple of recently fallen trees too.

Yes, the road up the west side of Chehalis Lake has been blocked for quite a few years by a huge landslide with no plans to repair the road in the near future.
The only way in now is via the west side of Harrison Lake then along Mystery Creek FSR
