Default Closest Off Road Park?

Doesn't it seem like an off road "park" would be a good business opportunity in New England- especially somewhere that isn't too brutal a drive from metro Boston? I would bet that there are lots of Boston residents that wish they had somewhere they could get into wheeling (especially since there are zero opportunities to off-road anywhere near the city.)

Regardless, I was wondering if anyone might be ale to tell me where the nearest park might be (maybe New York state?)...

I know that "paying" to go off-road seems lame, but people in other parts of the country seem to really like them. Thoughts appreciated.

There are 3 in Maine. They are all kind of a work in progress. But, some of the local clubs have gone up there this past summer.

Get in contact with some local clubs would be my suggestion.

There pretty much isnt anyplace to go in the Soviet Socialist Republic of New Yuck, unless you go private. I know of exactly ZERO places to go on public land.

Apparently I'm not allowed there. They have a 35" max tire size. And I know it's off topic... but I just noticed that the Jeep Jamboree changed thier max tire from a 38" to a 37". Guess it's a good thing I stopped at 37's.
