Nice shot!
That looks a lot like the 4X4 trails I hit in our Bikini in the FL panhandle.

This is Wharton State Forest in Southern NJ. There's about 250 miles of unpaved dirt roads for use. All named roads are legal for any licensed motorized vehicle. Nice easy stuff all the way up to fun stuff like this:D Griff wrote: ↑Mon Apr 19, 2021 2:37 pmThose colors,fledonfoot wrote: ↑Sat Apr 17, 2021 8:22 pm Did Jeep things with Apex today. Much fun.

Wifey had a lot of fun and is usually a passenger in stuff like this. After a little pushing, I was able to get her behind the wheel and she spent a good half hour or so getting used to how it feels in the dirt. She's down to do it again and is already talking about going back out.

I picked up some better waterproof boots so I can get in deeper water to hook up recovery straps next time.
You got my number homie.

Haha, I think my wife is actually better at off road driving than I am based on the bit we've done so far. I am the better on-road driver by a long margin, but she grew up in the country with four wheelers and stuff, so she has a lot more experience, I am pretty white knuckled on trails at this point.

One deep water recovery and rubber boots get added to the recovery kit. Now, I just wear my rubber boots when wheeling.Apex wrote: ↑Mon Apr 19, 2021 8:29 pmThat looks familiar.fledonfoot wrote: ↑Mon Apr 19, 2021 8:04 pm

Video of the exploits on Sunday. Nothing crazy out there but just a great Dirt therapy session. I want to keep doing this.
Weve been meaning to take our TH out there again. Maybe pass on the deep water crossings, but 5/7 would join.fledonfoot wrote:This is Wharton State Forest in Southern NJ.

We’ll have to get a DFD group together soon. Would be awesome.

Thinking about replacing the “Willy’s” stickers on the hood with some custom ones. My nickname with my IRL friends is Bomber.. could look cool on there. What says the Jeepers of DFD?

It stems from Jawn on the deadzone. I generally set Balius as my handle for forums, but the admins changed it to sawce here lol.
