We're planning a day drive east through Snoqualmie Pass, north through Blewitt Pass to Leavenworth, and then return west through Stevens Pass via Hwy. 2 . We'll meet somewhere near Factoria (I-90), 9 a.m. Exact location not determined yet. Please contact GRNSTRK@pensandpixels.com if you're interested in going.

Does anyone have any ideas for October's Meetup?

 

Pass-to-Pass-to-Pass drive, September 6th

Please join us! Puget Sound-area MINI owners are planning a mountainous, scenic drive on Saturday, September 6, to coincide with the monthly International MINI Cooper Meetup day (www.minicooper.meetup.com).

From the Seattle area, drivers are to head east on I-90 and meet in Issaquah at 9 a.m.
Take exit #15 (Hwy. 900, Renton/Lk. Sammamish State Park).
Take a right at top of ramp (17th Avenue NW), take next right (NW Gilman Blvd.), look for small office building on the left with a big flag in front of it (1871 NW Gilman Blvd.) with all the MINI's in the parking lot.

We will continue east on I-90 (Snoqualmie Pass) and head north-east on Hwy. 970 and Hwy 97 (Blewett Pass) to Leavenworth (Hwy 2). We'll make a couple of scenery stops along the way, and stop for lunch in Leavenworth. Return to the Seattle area is direct (Stevens Pass), Hwy 2 through Monroe, follow the signs for Seattle and I-5.

Map of planned drive is available in Word doc format. Please email questions to GRNSTRK@pensandpixels.com

We're not asking for RSVP's. If you can make it, great! If you can't, maybe next time! The more the merrier, spread the word.

We'll meet you there!
Wendy & Stephen Hughes-Jelen,
"GRNSTRK", West Seattle
