Flying from Yakima to WV and camping

I'm picking up a Carbon Cub in Aug and flying it back from Yakima to WV. I'd like to camp along the way at some nice grass strips. Any recommendations?

Re: Flying from Yakima to WV and camping

How far are you trying to go the first day? Moose Creek or Fish lake would be nice but that's not too far from Yakima. It would make a nice overnight stop if you took off later in the day though.Then you could stop at West Fork Lodge in MT the next day for fuel and breakfast. After that I'm not to sure where you could go without going too far out of the way. Maybe one of the Missouri Breaks strips in MT if you wanted to take a more northern route?

When you make it to Ohio, you are welcome to camp or stay on the couch (if I don't feel you are a weirdo) at my place. I have a hangar available if needed. It's 1000ft grass. I would prob have to take you out to eat because I know how long a flight that is and I would only feel slightly sorry for you.

Let me know!

Crap, I guess I'm out. I was thinking of heading out that way later this summer, guess I'll stay home now. [emoji12]

You better stop by, you weirdo! I guess I should've said, "If I don't feel that you are a creep"

Haha! If I come that way I'll stop for sure.
