Evans Creek / Trail #310

Michael Graham

My name is Michael Graham, and I'm retired from the U.S. Army as an Infantry First Sergeant with 23 years of service. I did one tour in Iraq and one in Afghanistan. I presently own a Process Service Company in Tacoma. I am originally from Upstate New York, but after being stationed in Washington, I knew immediately that this part of the country felt like home. Back in the 1980s, I owned a Jeep CJ5, my first 4x4, but back in the '80s, there wasn't the hype and add-on parts as there are today. Building my rig has been half the fun. Everyone has their style, and I have made my Jeep in my style, more for function. I have found it to be an addiction. I live in the Pacific Northwest, in the Tacoma / Puyallup area, and love the sport of "wheeling," which allows access to so much more than a hiking trailhead. I enjoy organized rides and poker runs and love the freedom and exploration this sport allows. Finding this website and authoring trail write-ups has dramatically enhanced this sport I have grown to love. I would love to hear from you if you are new to the sport or looking for someone to show you the trails. I wheel every weekend and sometimes during the week and run with other writers in the area.
