Had some fun up at squaw mountain outside of estacada today! Got a little muddy and did some minor "rock crawlin"

That's all illegal to wheel up there

Looks like such a beautiful place!

No actually it's not illegal at all. I live 5 minutes from this place. They are putting in trail signs and have been building wheeling trails for the past year or so. So just so everyone knows, it's NOT illegal. 👍🏼 and it is a very beautiful place too!

Good to know. Last I checked (2 months ago) it was all closed.

They were doing road service work, logging, and putting in a new staging area at the head of one of the new wheeling trails that's pretty damn gnarly.

where is squaw mountain at? Im still fairly new to Oregon, but use to go play up by some rv resort on the logging trails, dont know the name of it. would be cool to at least get my exploder out for a little run while my XJ is in about 100 pieces

It's like 3 to 5 miles outside of estacada. I know exactly where's it's at cause I live like 5 minutes away so I haven't really clocked it on the mile meter. But they changed the name to clackamas river rv. Search clackamas river rv in estacada and see if it comes up. It's on the left hand side of the road if your going away from estacada. There will be 2 entrances once you turn into the driveway. One on the left and on the right. Right takes you to the rv park. Left takes you up a paved road for about 3.5 miles then turns to gravel. Follow that gravel road and go explore the woods. Wheeling trails. Gravel pits. Awesome views. It's all there!

yup, thats the exact area I used to hit up. been down many a trails up there. thought it had a different name, always called it red fox or whatever the name was. but yeah for sure awesome place to romp around and killer views... I'm over in Gladstone. just gotta put my Xj back together.

It used to be called silver fox. The mountain itself is squaw mountain. But yeah I love it! We should maybe meet up sometime and go do some minor wheeling or somethin! My jeep isn't very built or anything YET. I got a 4.5 inch lift running 33's. Does do pretty damn good tho!! Ganna beef it up pretty soon.

PNWpioneer

yup, that was the name. hell yeah, I am down for that. yeah, totally know what ya mean, have the motor and wiring ripped out of my jeep at the moment. doing a 4.3 swap into an 86. kinda hard to get anything done when I have a family to take care of.

That area you are talking about is la dee flats ohv. It's a fun place the 800 trail is fun and so many different options all stages of builds can run the same trail and have fun. I'm down for a little run up there it's been awhile since I've been in the woods. I need to address a couple of things but not hard to fix. Lol

PNWpioneer

whatever the name is, its a pretty awesome place. havent gone up there in almost a year. but love it up there. praying for good weather this weekend, got a ton of work to do to my rig before I can take it out and have some fun.

1992-Cherokee

Let me know a weekend when you're free so we can all meet up and go have some fun! That would be a good time!

You know, the best way to find out if it's legal or not is to check with the National Forest/Ranger District there. They should have MVUM maps that are free and can tell you what type of vehicle is allowed where (and not allowed). Sure beats being somewhere you shouldn't and getting a fine.
