Possibly, although I'm not commited to the Rio...I have till april to cancel the reservation though I think.

I will contact sun mountain this afternoon and see what they can do.

Just remember, we really have no idea how many people will be going yet. I saw a fair amount of interest when I floated the idea of this late last year though...and I don't want people to feel they need to spend a lot on Sun Mountain if their budget can't afford it.

See what you can come up with though...it's early in the season, and they might be willing to work with us.

very true, just evaluating options.

Yeah, Sun Mountain looks nice. Not really that pricy unless you stay in one of the rooms with a fireplace.

camarowa · 02-23-2010, 03:01 PM

General Manager will give me a call back tomorrow (sun mountain lodge), as he is out today. Apparently they have done something similar in the past with other car related groups, sectioned off parts of their parking lot etc. I will ask them for a for breakdown for different group sizes.

Iroczlover · 02-23-2010, 04:46 PM

I am out, just found out that dan has duty that weekend dang it lol oh well.

Yeah I know, sorry. My wife is overseas right now and need to find out what she wants to do when she gets home next week. I also have four friends who have got these and they may join up as well. One just bought his today! CGM like mine only with silver stripes. Should be fun. I'll send you a PM next week once I figure everyone else plans.

Here are just a few samples of scenic drives through mountains and valleys in/around Winthrop:

In town, take the W. Chewuch Rd (across from the Winthrop Barn) north 10.5 miles to Falls Creek Falls. Take the five minute walk on the paved path to the wonderful waterfall. To return to town, travel the other side of the Chewuch River via E. Chewuch Rd.

Take the 35 minute drive via Hwy 20W to the snow, and mountains of Rainy and Washington Passes. Many day hikes (Blue, Rainy & Cutthroat Lakes) are offered from this area. While up there, don't forget to see the spectacular view from the Washington Pass Overlook (el. 5,477'). Prior to venturing out on this one, check with the Forest Service on Forest Pass requirements.

Drive the old Twisp-Carlton Rd. From Winthrop, travel eight miles south to the town of Twisp. Take a right at the F.O.E. The nine mile long road winds along the Methow River, pastures and picturesque ponds to the town of Carlton. At Carlton, turn left on Hwy 153 to travel north back to Winthrop.

Visit the third deepest lake in the United States, Lake Chelan. Take the one hour drive to the resort town of Chelan via the beautiful Methow Valley (Hwy 20E / Hwy 153S) and alongside the mighty Columbia River (Hwy 97S / 97S Alt).

These excusions sound neat. Although if there is a gravel road involved I will skip it.

Well, just let us know where the hotel will be and We'll reserve our room too. Thanks.

mikel441 · 02-24-2010, 07:58 PM

I got a rate quote back from Rio Vista Hotel. $100 for one night single queen bed. This may be the one I take. Looks like a decent place and the rate is good.

camarossowner · 02-24-2010, 08:05 PM

Sounds good to me.

Steve Dallas · 02-24-2010, 08:44 PM

I'm still reserved there, but may cancel depending on if anything happens with the Sun Mountain one. Either way, it's going to be fun
