great ride.
This was a great ride... I got there a little after 10am and just drove around for awhile, then ripped off my rear fender (my fault) on a tight squeeze through the trees. Then I went up a decent pitch with boulders the size of office chairs... I felt better after that. 
I caught up with some TJ's and a Redrock Lifted JK Unlimited with 37's, so I tagged along with them... which got me into trouble a couple of times with my mostly stock Rubicon, but they were quick to pull me out.
Anyway, any Louisiana JK people bitching about nowhere to ride need only take a day to go up to Sicily Island / Catahoula.
Apologize for the lame pics... I was too busy driving. I'll upload some vids later.

I wanted to go BAD but had prior plans I couldn't change. Is that park open daily or only on appointment?
