actually that had nothing to do with why the club split.......the white fullsize is actually the new vice president of the club and that is his claim to fame for himself is that he can go anywhere as long as he can bounce off the trees.......he would actually be a main reason we left the club.......Ed and DJ may say they are trail friendly and that they have adopted swamp, but what have they actually done out there??????? NOTHING.....the one time DP hosted a clean up out there Ed and DJ sat on there ass' at camp and then bitched a few months later about the work THEY did on swamp that got ruined.......as everyone who runs out there can see, NOTHING has been done by DP since april.......the P and VP of DP are alot of talk and no action........other members of DP are responsible when they are out there and are equipted to be there.......as for the others of DP who aren't......if you know your rig won't make it 5 feet into the trail without breaking down then your rig does not need to be on the trail......damn I am glad I left DP
. This specific Video they talk about was right after the Elbe Focus Group meeting where the Forestry Guy Said to us and others that All the trees inside the Trail Corridor are consider a loss and he did not care what we did to them.
I have told ed to forget it. most of the people who are responding to this and giving dog pound crap are either going off of old info or in some cases(jen) lying out right but that is ok let them go if they want to pretend that they never made mistakes or have never learned a lesson and improved the way they do something to have a lessor or better inmpact than they did the first time they did something then they need to be out there every time anyone is wheeling to teach them the proper way. that way they can put thier super powers to good use.

The reason for the dog pound(DOG FATHER) getting flamed is his first reply to this thread he was running his mouth and then i clicked on his link and saw the video. After watching that video he really should have never even thought about replying to this thread. That group is a joke.[/QUOTE
I am part of that group that you refered to as a joke. I am the white f-150 in the video, I have learned alot since the vid was taken even parked the rig(f-150) which still runs and drives and swithced to a b-2 as to have a smaller foot print on the trail. I have been on the trail and seen people in smaller rigs with tubes and lockers trying to push down trees. I have seen people in tube buggies and very capable rigs pass others on the trail by blazing thier own trails........HMMMM should I waiste my day and go through all of the vids and publish the ones where we have seen this done here for all to see and flame them????? I wonder if any of you who are doing the flaming could be in those videos???
think before you through that stone you two.
we have admitted making mistakes.
I am now done playing your little game now drop it.
good-bye

Of course it is.Its all about the :heartpump: :heartpump: :heartpump: :heartpump: here at the NWW!:corn:
You know what Jen You didn't fail me when you were a Member of Dogpound and as I read your comments I see you didn't fail me again. Thanks for manipulating the things from the past when we were inexperienced wheelers (not to make statement that we are anywhere near professional now) to use as facts to further your campaign to discredit the Dogpound. These are the type of things you did as a member and that is why no one asked you to stay when you said you were leaving.
You and others on this thread are absolutely right. When we started wheeling we did bounce off trees and Climb trees to get thru the trail. No we didn't have lockers or lift or big tires. We were new then and like many others did not know any better. This specific Video they talk about was right after the Elbe Focus Group meeting where the Forestry Guy Said to us and others that All the trees inside the Trail Corridor are consider a loss and he did not care what we did to them. That was about the time we started discussing adopting Swamp trail because it is the only somewhat difficult trail that is full size friendly. That root ball that we were trying to climb has since disappeared.
Since that Time frame I and others have been to all the PNW4WDA meetings and the Elbe Focus group meeting and our Club is a supporting Member of WOHVA.
So we are learning and trying to work and make new guidelines for our club to help in the fight to keep our trail open.
One of the ways we have done this is Most of us have switched to smaller wheel base vehicles, both I (P) and DJ (VP) now wheel Bronco II's.
And for your information DJ (VP) has not wheeled a full-size vehicle for some year and a half now.
As far as DJ and I sitting on our Ass and doing nothing Who prepared the food and made sure it was hot for people on the trail we weren't the ones sitting there Drinking Mixed drinks all day while we were supposed to be working with the public. But we weren't going to mention that because for some people it is simply a waist of time. Also as far as nothing happening at Swamp trail since April, Talk to Crunch he will be glad to give you a full report.
And for others information there is only one Member of DogpoundOffroad that goes down the Busywild trail and that is ChevmantL. He is the only one that has a rig capable of the Busy. All our pics and vids are mostly of Swamp trail.
Hey Chop Shop
Kapowsin was when I started wheeling We were not even a Club then.
I was like 17 back then now I'm like 20 so I'm learning We are trying to do better and set the proper standards for our members. Also the folks you met then have split into 4 different groups, BrokeBastards, OffcamberOffroad, DogpoundOffroad and Pacific northwest Full Size Offroad.
This is another fine example of what the PNW4WDA is trying to Combat.
Some kids go out with Dads 4X4 and tear things up and we all get a Bad name for it.
Are we part to blame for some of that (YES) but since then we have gained more knowledge. Working with the DNR and other groups we have learned more responsible was of wheeling.
The pictures of the white F150 supercab is the VP's rig and it was his first year of wheeling and mistakes were made. He has since then switched to a Smaller rig and is much more trail conscious.
You know what we are not going play this point fingers game anymore, we have goneup.
Chop Shop how long has it been since you have seen anyone from DogpoundOffroad
Wheeling and are you basing your opinions on Us in Kapowsin or that elbe vid.
What have you seen of us Now?
