Anyone close to St. Louis, MO or have any idea of some trails around the area for me to get my TB stuck? I'd like to go along with someone, because I'm worried about getting stuck often and won't try things cause I don't have a "get my @ss out" plan. :(

Not around the STL area, but wanted to say I don't blame you. I move around quite often and your same predicament is what limits my excursions most of the time. Good luck to ya. Have you tried a local 4x4 club?

200 miles away, but we can meet in the middle somewhere...does Garden of the Gods have offroading? My cousin said he has camped there and I think he said it may have been public ground.
I hate to advocate weird chemicals, alcohol, violence or insanity to anyone...but
they've always worked for me.

Been looking into a couple local 4x4 clubs but many of them are "jeeps only" effing nazi's......anyway

Garden of the Gods i believe is public ground as it most of the Shawnee National Forest down there. It's a really beautiful area down there, but I'm not sure about the offroad trails (how many, where they're at, how long, etc)
