I'll think about that one. I will have to check yours out. It looks good. I may call you this week about some more mod work. Also thinking of maybe going to 35's.

Damn! I hate missing a good time! Looked like a good day. Pagoda, the winch looks real nice. Hopefully adding the snorkel soon so I can take it for a test run.

There is absolutely no destruction of any habitat, trails are plentiful and very wet with long deep puddles. No ponds at all are ever ventured. You'd never get out of them even if you did. We drive through water because we choose too. Our group treads extremely lightly as do all the 4x4's and dirt bikes we pass in that park. We appreciate you being accusatory and presumptive, thanks.

Yeah. If we drove through ponds we would have fishing poles attached to our Jeeps so we could do some trolling while we were out there.

Really, there is absolutely no reason to damage habitat in the Pine Barrens. There is plenty of good stuff to Jeep in right on the trails. In fact I don't believe I have ever seen any Jeeps trailblazing out there. Did see some idiot kids in a Honda Civic once. I don't have any ideal how they got as far as they did.

BTW great photos. I'd love to have been out there today but I just washed my Jeep and I can't do a thing with it.

Obviously you have never been to Wharton. The trails are just that wet, and there often isnt even an option to go around. Noone is straying from the established trails here or causing any damage. Don't make such harsh accusations when your obviously completely ignorant to the topic.
