cfire Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 A warning to all. It's great to run laps on Snow Creek Wall for a day, then get back to your rig and it's been broken in to and a bunch of your shit is gone. That shit included my cooler of beer and my flip-flops! It's a cold bastard that steals a guys flip-flops and beer. Lot's of other, more expensive stuff taken as well. This was Thursday morning. When we got to the trailhead there was a car with windows broken out and their stuff ransacked. Got back that evening and the same had happened to my camper. The stench of cigarette smoke and tweeker BO inside made it that much more special. Sheriff said pretty unusual for it to happen in broad daylight. He said he'd be visiting the lot more as there seems to be a rash, but I doubt it will be enough to deter the POS. Watch your stuff. There seems to be an entrepreneur cleaning out cars. Anybody want to hang out with me on top of that rock across the road with a baseball bat and binoculars? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matt_warfield Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 (edited) Years ago I went to the Snow Creek TH to go climbing and every single car had been broken into. Stuart TH as well is a target as it is more isolated. My car got broken into in broad daylight at Vantage, stereo stolen, I replaced it and had it stolen the same day it was installed at Exit 38. All trailheads and parking areas are vulnerable. These things can happen in 5 minutes. Patrols are rarely going to catch it. The key is to have a crappy car with no stereo and nothing of value inside. And understand that it is a risk that comes with outdoor activity.

The crappy part of the other breakin that Chris mentions is that it was a beater Toyota with obviously little to nothing of value amongst other vehicles with potentially more to steal.

obwan Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 What a bummer, and I was just thinking of heading over to Leavenworth. What ever happened to the famous "Exit 38 Bandit", aka - "The I-90 Car Prowler"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
