The land is an old strip mine, about 900 acres with a playground area, and lots of wooded trails with various hills, obstacles, creek crossings, etc

Sounds like fun. Only thing I have in Florida is fire roads and swamps.

 

[pvanweelden]

Swamps= no good

Should be fun, but I have a feeling the guys on only 33's will cause us some recovery time

You haven't seen Baby Murph in action! He will get his TJ through with a "little" skinny pedal if need be.

I don't mind recovery time... It's half the fun to me, and If you take a couple pics of their stuck rigs it will motivate them to upsize. And who knows.... Maybe they will end up pulling you out! I've been pulled out by my buddy on 33's when I was on 37s (I did have a broken rear axle tho, stupid d35).

Most unique rig, must be his version of a "mobile home"!
Before


Yes that is a mail box on the hood and a freezer on the back!

After


That's his roof sticking straight up, he rolled it while being towed out

 

[pvanweelden]

Another better unique rig= studebaker

Oh the good old Midwest. Gotta love it. Wish I would have had a jeep out in SoDak when I was younger. Would have saved me from getting stuck a lot.

 

[Tackerdown]

That looks like a fun place to wheel.

It is, but unfortunately we only hit the outside wooded trail, and one of the obstacle areas today "slab rock" there are several trails with many obstacles, but the biggest obstacle is usually mud :-(
Thankfully, today, it was very dry, but almost too dry. Traction was hard to get, but the mudholes were easy to avoid one rollover today, probably 90 rigs out today, 900 acres, was a lil crowded at times, which kept us from playing at the "playground" area which has quite a few strip mine cracks to climb. Although we didn't really "do much" today, I think everybody had fun it was a fun day
