Anyone in or around St Louis? I ask cause I'm thinking hard about taking a job offer I have there, but I'd be there with out my wife or kids till school gets out. So I could really use some Off Road brothers to lean on...

nick_n_ii · 11-22-2008, 10:57 PM

YA it's going to suck, but I'll know most all details next week. If it happen as I hope, I'll be down there on the 31's of Dec. to start work after the first of the year. But I gota do what I gota do to keep my family feed. They'll be down there with me in about 6 months.

nick_n_ii · 11-26-2008, 10:30 AM

I've heard there are soem god trails south and west of St. Louis. I guess I'll be finding out when I get out there..

thebrow89 · 11-26-2008, 11:53 AM

thats proly near or in st. joes keep me posted on what u find?

nick_n_ii · 11-26-2008, 11:58 AM

Will do, It will be a complete relocation as of late June for the family.

I should be down there as of the first of Jan. and than looking for a second job.

I have to get a house for the family, newer car for the wife(she don't have one) another Jeep to replace my ZJ(looking at a XJ or v8 ZJ). And re-furnish that place, cause we don't plan to move much of our junk. I'll be one busy mofo for about 5-6 months..

But it's a job of which there are none here in Michigan....

thebrow89 · 11-27-2008, 10:27 PM

sounds like u got ur work cut out for u bro good luck

nick_n_ii · 11-27-2008, 11:33 PM

That is the under statement of the year..

whowey · 12-01-2008, 07:21 PM

There are a couple of places in Missouri....

Flat Nasty Off Road Park.. its south west of you.. and its got some extreme stuff.

And Hannibal Rocks Off Road Park. This would be north of you. These are the same owners of the old RockPort Off Road Park in Illinois... Really, Really, Really world class people....

There are some trails in the Shawnee National Forest in Illinois, but they are more scenic places rather than off-roading trails.
