We are currently evaluating a major software upgrade for the Discussion
Forum. For more information on the proposed upgrade, please visit the "New Escapees Discussion Forum" thread in "About the Discussion Forums."
Direct Link to Discussion We will post notices in this area well in advance of any actual change, so you'll have plenty of advance warning.
Between Ellensburg and Yakima, along the Yakima River (SR-821), there are several recreation areas. The nicest of them is Big Pines and costs $5 per night (BLM, so US Citizens with a Senior or Access pass can stay for $2.50).
Our 2004 Benchmark Washington State Atlas has the area listed as "Squaw Creek," but the sign as we passed said Big Pines...changed, I'm sure, for PC reasons.
