I could be down for that. I've been itching to get the jeep dirty for the first time. I was trying to get it better equipped for the trails before i hit them but oh well.

Nothing extreme, but there are still some fun rocky hill climbs, creek crossings, and best of all....no bottomless mudholes. You'll need 4 low and might hit a few rocks with the skids, but nothing serious and no chance of body damage aside from a scratch or two. Any stock or lightly modified Jeep would have a good time.

Its just an idea right now, I've seen several posters here wanting to get their Jeeps dirty but don't know where to go, and any trail ride is better than no trail ride.
I will definatly be on the lookout for that thread. I am always looking for a place to wheel the Jeep (even the old truck.) I took the old truck to JeepSkool in NE Ohio and had a blast. I will be back with the Jeep.

I noticed alot of guys in the general Youngstown area. Good to know.

If any of you are close enough and willing to come out, Jeepskool is going to be on for this coming weekend, i know it's easter and all, but it could be our easter jeep safari for the north east lol
Jeepskool begins their three day weekends soon, $30 for a 3-day weekend pass, $5 per guest and $10 for camping, electricity available and new bathouse and sweet pavilion built. Great place for the family, and Many different terrains for you to test yourself and your rig's limits

Been there, great place to play. I would be up for a return trip and have a good spot to start off from.

I live in a little town just off 75 called Middletown. Gets its name because its basically in the middle of Cincy and Dayton.
I'm a member of a local club that has been around for about 15 years. Its not jeep exclusive, we are planning a trip to Haspen Acres in laurel IN at the end of Aug. All are welcome to join.
I have been into 1:1 wheeling since I first got my DL's and bought my first Zuk. Since then I have owned about 25Zuks.
I say 1:1 because I'm also a sponsored driver of RC crawlers. Never heard of them....? Google it...LOL.
If any of you guys ever wanna meet up and BS or hit the trails please feel free to hit me up.

BTW I have dropped the Sums and am now the proud owner of a 07 Sahara with a few tweaks.
