My 1998 XJ has done trails all around the Ouray, CO area, the Moab, UT area, Phoenix, AZ area, NV, and all over Southern CA.
Just recently purchased a 2011 JK to add another Jeep to the stable.
i've been looking around the site and you can post pictures on the trails that are in the system, if you took any. this will add to your points but you just won't get the major points for checking in at the site.

on a side note, you get up to 10 points a day for just posting comments, so if you were dedicated to getting the badge you could reach the top tier of the system with out leaving your house and become a trail expert or whatever its called. kind of a flawed system in that aspect.

Shit. That looked like fun until:

#1 "To register, you must have a social profile with one of the below"
"Chrysler Group LLC is requesting permission to:

Kiss my butt.


and #2: The only trail on there even remotely close to me in Colorado is Holy Cross. WTF? There are at least 50 trails between me and Holy Cross... What's up Chrysler? Do you not have a copy of FunTreks Guide Books lying around? LOL

Interesting but I'd not consider john bull. 7-9 maybe a 7 tops....

Mall parking lot jewelry.....I want one that says its a good life I let the rest of the jeeps damage speak for itself....

Good concept and marketing option for the masses....

Apparently the app works without cell phone service. GPS coordinates work with or without cell service.

You get a hard badge for going on the trail....not for points. The digital badge is done for points.

Looks like the coordinates are right, but the Maps are messed up. Fin's and Things are in the wrong spot on the map too, but the coordinates are right.
