Sounds good. Dave text me this morning and we talked about it. I should be able to make it if we start that early. I'll have to head out around 11:30 though, my son has a soccer game.

Ain't that the dang truth. My nearest park is 2 hrs from me at best now. I loved having one an hour away.

Y'all ever been to Stony? Looks like it would be a good time.

 

[The Luke]

I haven't. It's definitely on my list. We need to put a trip together

or just make it a state park/wildlifemanagment area

The model is already in place from Alabama with Stony.

TN does similar with the North Cumberland/Royal Blue WMA/OHV setup, except the state doesnt have any infrastructure or facilities in place, but private places like the "Trails End Campground" provide the developed access points.

hows the trail system? it's 10 hrs for me so I'd prefer some good trail riding as compared to just picking obstacles and hitting them

 

[betteroffsingle]

They come up off of the "no coolers on the trail" yet?

You need to get with Bobby or find a good trail guide.

There is a park rule of no alcohol. Coolers are allowed in the park and on the trails. Coolers are checked a the trail head.

There are main access roads into the park that will have traffic on them. I you can ride with someone who knows the park you can choose a route that avoids a most of the main rode. The trails are pretty good. Most are shaded with trees. The trails are level 1-2 stuff that leads you to obstacle stuff. The are few trails that are long enough to enjoy but nothing like outside the southeast with miles of trails.
The best part about this park is you can show up in a stock Jeep or up to a bouncer and find something to ride on to keep you happy.

so could you drink at camp?

 

[RustyC]

No. Not if you are camping in the park. No alcohol at all in the park.

 

[jeeptj99]

Well that sucks. Vodka in a water bottle it is.

 

[kmcminn]

They dont mess with people in camp.

 

[muddinmetal]

I have seen many an adult beverage consumed at camp with zero issues, but as a disclaimer, it is a drink at your own risk park
