Powerfest 2011 venue ideas.

Other than the Tillamook State Forest Brown's camp area and OHV park, where do you think would be a good place to hold our event?

There's a place in Harrisburg which is just North of Junction City on 99E that puts on events. I spoken with the owner and it seems pretty interesting. Has anyone been there during one of their events? Any information?

Johnson Valley CA...
has mild to wild rocks..sand dunes.... dry lake beds...desert race courses and you can do pretty much whatever you want..
It's BLM land so I think it's pretty much free...Dry camping though, no facilities.. but we could probably get a shit house or two.

Moving the event down to California sounds fun, but I think it may exclude some of the participants from Washington. There are a lot of wheeler's in the central part of WA, and Seattle that make the 6 hr trip to TSF. I don't know how many would be willing to add extra hours to that

I would not be opposed to the Naches Trail, funny rocks area. There is ton or room, it is central located and there are developed areas (water restrooms etc.)with little to no fee required.

The trail system is larger and varies from very technical trails all the away down to beginner with a stock vehicle. You can go from running mud, to difficult rocks, then right on over to a easy trail ride.

I will volunteer myself for whatever is needed most, from a camp host all the way to trail guide. if the event is held close I can count on at least two more mature adults as well.

They hold the NAXJA meet up there yearly and there's plenty of room and fun for all.

The Naches area is a good one, I've run events out of that area before and have had success. The overflow camping area at Cow Camp is great! That is a good idea...

I was also thinking about the rock crawling park close to Goldendale.

The dunes would be a good place for a summer powerfest. Not so much fall.

Are you thinking Florence or Christmas Valley, or California?

Ive been in contact with Cystal down there at the Harrisburg Motorsports complex, they said they would be more than welcome to have us there and hold some sort of event. There's plenty of camping and some pretty serious obstacles.

I suggest the Naches area.  There is a local gas station/general store.  There is a close hotel and plenty of camping at crow creek, plus the open meadow/camping area would make a nice area for some kind of activities.  Plenty of trails for all skill levels.


Maybe in late aAugust or in Sept. for a time frame.

Yep, these are all great suggestions. I've held events similar to that there and it went well. This would be a definite possibility.

Me and my"crew would love to go back to Naches with you guys. We had a blast out there, especially moon/funny rocks. Until I broke...... (Thanks "2 DOGS INK" for watching my s**t til I came back with my truck and trailer)
