About this event


14th Annual Gig Harbor Drive


 Please bring a FRS radio if you have one.
 
We will meet at Gateway Park just west of Purdy on Hwy 302 with a full tank of gas.  After a short driver's meeting, we will depart on the drive.

Arrive:  8:00
Depart:  8:30
 
The drive will head west on Hwy 302 to Hwy 3 through Belfair and along the north shore of Hood Canal to our first stop at Dewatto River Campground.

After a short rest stop we will head up Dewatto Bay Rd to the challenging Bear Creek-Dewatto Rd, then continue our journey north passing several lakes on our way to our second stop at Kitsap Memorial State Park.
 
 
 
We then head across the Hood Canal bridge on Hwy. 104 to South Point Rd and tour some nice back roads, through the town of Quilcene,  on our way to the lunch stop at Quilcene Campground. 

You can bring a sack lunch, or eat at one of the restaurants in town.  You will have about 1 hour.
 
After lunch, there will be two options. 

Option 1 - We will turn around and go back the way we came, and re-drive most of the fun roads that brought us to Quilcene.  

Option 2 (self-led) - If you want a more relaxed scenic route, continue down Highway 101 through the towns of Hoodsport and Union to our next stop at Potlatch State Park.  
From Potlatch State Park, go to Trails End Rd, going past Mason and Benson lakes, making our way to Hwy 3, then down Hwy 3 through the town of Allyn,  back along the bay on Hwy 302 to our starting and ending point at Gateway Park. I can provide maps for this route.
 
We will be making several stops at state parks, so having a Discover Pass is recommended.

I hope you will be able to come and join us!
