Forrest, is this a public place and if it is where can I get a trail map. I belong to another group in CT which would be interested in these trails

Well we met and had a bit of a late start but it went well.  we had two series show up, a unimog, a jeep and 2 discos.  We took a tough trail and one 88 and the unimog had to leave early, but we still had a good time.  my trucks center diff lock was frozen so I had 1 wheel drive which made it difficult, but with the help from the jeep I made it through.  
we ran into some  locals who seemed in a bit over their heads but they could have walked home if need be so we continued.

James; do you have a lift on the G4 yet? It doesn't seem to have any clearance on it. Usually a 2" lift, and 32 or 33's, and you can keep the butt clear of most things.

Just a 2" OME and 265/75/16. So its pretty much stock aside from sliders and diff protection. I did get hung up a lot on this trail, but I think a lot of it could have been avoided if I picked a different line in a few places.

Nice pics and videos. I have a couple I can upload. Not too many though.
