I'm 3-4 days away still. Yesterday I had my three kids in the car for 12 hrs LOL Today we will try to get deep into Washington.

i am getting 12-14 us mpg with the m101 trailer. are you sure that math is right? 15 mpg in a 3FE with a trailer would be phenomenal.

Yup I got it right.... but it's with a 3B not a 3fe. I took my BJ60 on this journey. Today I pushed into 20 I think for mpg. I filled up in Kelowna and went direct to clarkston, wa thru Osoyoos and then on the 395. Then it took 65 dollars of diesel at 4.45 a gallon.

Clarkston/Lewiston is absolutely beautiful. The drive down the hill is amazing.

Now I'm two days away! I got to Mountain Home, ID today. Nice drive from Clarkston to Mountain home, quite the descent down into the park outside Lewiston. I was wondering why my truck was sucking ass soo much then I found out it was 5200 feet at the summit around Cascade. I've driven almost all mountain roads since leaving Northern BC I'm ready for some flat interstate stuff.

If all go's as planned I should be arriving tomorrow after running Lockhart. Hopefully we will run the trail without incident this year. looking forward to seeing everyone.
