Lake Cle Elum is just seven miles north of Cle Elum town and around one hour and 40 minutes away from Seattle. This is the perfect weekend trip for those who like to be by the water.
Located on the Cle Elum River, Lake Cle Elum is a popular fishing destination. The waters hold an abundance of trout species, including rainbow, kokanee, and cutthroat.
Although fishing is open year-round, the reservoir gets depleted mid-summer. So there aren’t any boat launch facilities after this time.
If you’re heading to Lake Cle Elum, you’re going to need three things: fishing gear, a boat, and the 2018 Nissan Titan XD.
This truck has an astonishing towing capacity of 12,630 pounds when properly equipped. So no matter how big your boat is, the Titan XD will handle it.
A weekend fishing trip requires a fair amount of gear, especially if you bring a few friends. Whatever you need can go in the Titan XD’s 6.5-foot-long bed which has a maximum payload capacity of 2,290 pounds. So you won’t have to leave anything behind.

Soap Lake is located in Chelan County and just a 2.5-hour drive from Seattle, Washington. Whether you want to save some money or prefer to do things more naturally, this is the perfect alternative to a spa getaway.
The water in this lake feels silky and soapy to the touch: hence its name. This is the result of the location which is rich in minerals.
All you need to do is show up, cover yourself in mud from the lake, let it dry, and then rinse it off. After that, you can enjoy your baby soft skin.
To complete this journey, you’re going to need to spend a total of five hours on the road. The best vehicle to get you there feeling refreshed and energized is the 2018 Nissan Titan Platinum Reserve.
The Titan has heated and cooled leather captain’s chairs at the front. Its driver’s seat is 8-way power adjustable with lumbar support, so you don’t have to worry about lower back pain.
The dual zone air conditioning in the Titan allows both the driver and person in the passenger seat to have their own climates. This prevents any arguments over who sets the temperature.

Craving something good to eat? Love attending food festivals? If your stomach is already growling, you’re exactly the kind of patron that will be attending the Seattle Cheese and Meat Festival—part of The Artisan Food Festival—this Saturday, April 20th from 11 am–6 pm at 115 Bell St, Seattle, WA 98121.
The Seattle Cheese and Meat Festival is for anyone that enjoys a few of the finer things in life. Upon check-in, you’ll receive a complimentary charcuterie board and glass. Once you’re inside, you’ll be delighted to know you can enjoy meats, cheeses, and more while also sipping on beer, wine, spirits, cider, and kombucha. Overall, there will be more than 50 vendors in attendance. Ticket prices start at $35.
If you do plan on heading over to the Seattle Cheese and Meat Festival, you might as well ride in a handy, capable vehicle. That’s where Nissan’s 2018 Titan SV comes in. It offers up a 5.6L V8 that kicks out 390 HP and 394 lb.-ft. of torque. As a result, you’ll enjoy the ability to tow as much as 9,740 pounds!
Got a friend or family member that can act as a designated driver? Fantastic! Then you’re likely to love the upcoming Seattle Scotch and Beer Fest at Fremont Studios (155 N 35th St. Seattle, WA 98103).
Taking place Friday, April 19 (6pm-12am) and Saturday, April 20 (1pm-11pm), the Seattle Scotch and Beer Fest features a total of more than 50 varieties of wine, beer, Scotch whiskey, and assorted spirits. Available tickets range from $30 to $45, with the former offering beer + cocktails (8 tasting tokens and one 5 oz. commemorative tasting glass included), and the latter offering Top Shelf Seminars by a certified Master of Scotch (10 samples of high-end Scotch and Irish whiskey included). Perhaps best of all, every ticket purchased benefits Seattle Humane, a nonprofit that seeks to save pets in need by finding loving homes for them.
If you do head to the Seattle Scotch and Beer Fest with a designated driver, why not roll down the roads of Renton and Tacoma in the 2018 Nissan Titan XD King Cab? It stuns with an engine that easily generates a whopping 390 horses at 5,800 RPM (revolutions per minute) and 394 lb.-ft. of torque @ 4,000 RPM. That’s the kind of power you can rely on!

If the advent of spring has you itching to get out of the house for a day trip, try a unique journey back in time. A 40-minute drive south in a 2018 Nissan Titan Platinum Reserve will lead you to Fort Nisqually, the first European settlement on Puget Sound. The Hudson’s Bay Company trading post has become a living history museum.
While only two of the original buildings remain, recreations include a working blacksmith’s shop, a trade store, a demonstration kitchen and a kitchen garden, as well as worker housing.
Volunteers and staff, dressed in period clothing, are on hand to demonstrate 19th Century crafts and chores, and visitors can play games of the non-video variety. But for a 21st Century twist, there are also two Escape Room variations for adults and kids over 14.
The award-winning Trapped: Escape Fort Nisqually will have you working by candlelight with documents and artifacts to get back to the present day. In its sequel, Arrested: Â Fort Nisqually, your team will have to recover HBC secrets before they fall into the wrong hands and potentially lead to a treason conviction for Fort Nisqually employee John McLeod.
The museum is located at 5400 N. Pearl Street, #11, in Tacoma’s Point Defiance Park. But first, stop by Kirkland Nissan near Kirkland, Washington, and test drive the 2018 Nissan Titan Platinum Reserve! It’s full of modern features. Everything doesn’t have to be old fashioned on your trip!

Port Townsend is about a two-hour drive from Seattle, Washington and makes the perfect weekend getaway. Whether you’re a lover of seafood, culture, or science, this area won’t disappoint.
It was once hoped that this location would turn into the largest west coast port, but it shrank dramatically by the 1890s. This was unfortunate for the economy but great for modern day visitors who get to walk amongst the unchanged Victorian-style buildings.
The town is small and quaint with a population of around 5,000. But it boasts some excellent galleries, bookshops, restaurants, and views of the sea. Adults and children alike are sure to get a lot of enjoyment from a visit to the Port Townsend Marine Science Center in Fort Worden State Park.
Get yourself and your loved ones to Port Townsend in comfort by taking the 2018 Nissan Titan XD SL. At the front, there are two heated leather captain’s chairs, and the driver’s seat is 8-way power adjustable. So, when you arrive, you’ll still feel fresh and full of energy.
The Titan XD’s five seats are spread out over 119.7 cubic feet of cabin space. This means everyone will have their own area to relax on the journey.

Lovers of art should head to the Museum of Glass which is located just thirty miles south of Seattle in Tacoma, Washington.
This museum is home to stunning glass sculptures, many of which were made by renowned Washington artist Dale Chihuly. Mirror the beauty you’ll see on this trip by making it in the 2018 Nissan Titan Platinum Reserve.
The Titan’s metal-look grille which is surrounded by chrome perfectly contrasts its deep tinted glass.
The real stars of the show are arguably the Titan’s 20-inch chrome clad wheels: this truck is beautiful from every angle.

Hiking is great but, if you really want to get the most out of your time, it makes sense to find a good driving route. The road encircling Mt. Rainer National Park gives you a chance to experience all the wonders of this area in one day.
This route is 147 miles long and, if you allow time for stops, takes around five hours to complete. The road passes all four entrances to the park, giving you the opportunity to discover each one’s unique qualities.
To tackle a trip like this you’ll need a vehicle that’s equally as rugged as the route: enter the 2018 Nissan Titan SV. This truck’s 5.6-liter V8 Endurance engine produces a whopping 390 horsepower and 394 lb.-ft of torque. So you’ll always have confidence when you put your foot down.
The Titan comes equipped with ABS and an electronic stability control system. So, whether you’re accelerating out of a corner or making an emergency stop, there'll be plenty of traction.
The gas-pressurized shock absorbers in the Titan keep this vehicle level and steady through even the most extreme corners. In this truck, you’ll enjoy the experience of driving just as much as the views which surround you.
Love the ride as much as the trip: contact Kirkland Nissan, Washington to book a test drive today.
