For those still intrested in the Snow Cat Jamboree 2013 Jan 25th~27th in Leavenworth Washington . I found a great area to run the cats and park for free without the need for a Discovery pass . The run area is at Eagle Creek Leavenworth Washington .Its 15 minutes north of Leavenworth .
It is not a groomed snowmobile trail . Its great for running the cats .
Parking is at the end of Eagle Creek road which is a paved county maintained road which is plowed in the winter .

The last house on the left has a parking area thats good for trucks and trailers .I figure we can get 20 rigs in there maybe more .

Please send your truck and trailer lenght to c-i-e@tgi.net . Please include your name ,cell phone number the lenght of your truck and trailer as well as your make and modle of the truck and cat . All parking will be first come first serve .

For those of you that are good with the internet simply map quest Eagle Creek road Leavenworth Washington .This will show the area we intend to go . Some of the roads do not show on map quest . NF7520 will not be on our route .

I am making the drive over to Leavenworth today to scout more of the Jamboree route . This time Jim is going to meet me over there .

I took a call from the local snomobiel cub president from Leavenworth . He somehow heard about the Snow Cat Jamboree Excited he wants to ride along with someone . He offered to supply us with a food cart . A fellow in town that owns a bar has a food cart for such events and wants to bring it out to sell us grub . any comments folks on that:whistling:

Would you have been in a jeep or a service truck? That sounds like a fun trip.
 
the trip was to escort them with my snow trac they would have to fy it in to galina than i would escort the jeep to nome. sounds like fun i would love to get paied to have that much fun
 
Doc. Can you put the link with the map location on the web page.
I don't have my laptop right now. I'm working off my phone. Will be back home Sunday
 
three of us drove the proposed roads for the jamboree Saturday along with The groomer operator who lives at the trailhead. The area is hilly with switchbacks a few hairpin corners. Some open areas to do things in . At the trailhead is a long mountain hill for a challenging hill climb. King of the mountain anyone??
it looks like an excellent place with some off road travel areas.It isn't restricted to the jamboree only from what I understand because it is used by snowmobiles at times and a non groomed forest Road .Some signs are planned will be posted at staging areas to look out for our slow rigs. I haven't got the total elevation yet but will soon.
The hotel in town has a large lot for trailers free if you have a room. you should have room at the private trailhead for large rigs but it may only be for load/unload . Town is a short drive maybe 5 miles. We were all happy with what we seen today.
this picture shows a small stream crossing and the hill climb hill.

I can't find that link Marco. Please post it here when you can.
 
Hmmm, I had that pic, I thought it was on there but double checking it is not there. I'll try to get that one and the other additional pics you emailed me added later tonight (as long as the line to vote is not to long).
 
Hey Folks remember to buy Plates and Tags for your snow cat . Its simple and not expensive to do.
If your cat has a tittle it will be an ORV tag . If you have no title it will be a Vintage snowmobile plate and tag.
 
Your always welcome to attend. Everyone on the list is really looking forward to seeing all the vintage cats show off their stuff , its going to be great fun !

You go to the washington state vehicle tabs agent anywhere in the state of Washington and ask for a out of state temp vintage snowmobile plate and tag. They are both stickers. Be sure to bring your serial number of the cat . If you have a title from any state bring it in and ask for an out of state ORV temp plate and tag . This is simple easy and takes very little time to do .

Its going to be a great Jamboree we are all looking forward to seeing you there .

I will look into the phone number for the Agent in Leavenworth Wa and post it here .
 
Hey Doc,

Any chance you could make it out? I bet there will be some empty seats for you to ride in....I know I will probably have some room in my machine. Consider yourself invited, if that is OK with Marco anyway...

Lots of us snow catters here who are thankfull for this forum. It's time you got a ride in the mountains, for what you do. Plane tickets are not that much...

Reards, Kirk
 
I would love to Kirk. Sounds like fun for sure. I would love to see all the Cats up close, and ride in them. I had not considered it until now but I will see if I can swing it cost wise, along with a little time off work. I've never been to Washington State and this would be a prime opportunity for sure. Thanks for the invite. :tiphat:
