I live in central Indy and I have heard nothing but good things. They say it is nice because you can camp there and wheel from sun up to sun down and they are less strict on the rules like Badlands can be. I can't say for sure because I have never been there so I can't say too much. I, personally, would like to go to both but Haspin is supposed to be great. There are some Youtube videos from haspin you might check them out. One of these days I will make it to one of these places....

i have been to both and by far haspin RULES. far more aggressive trails and much more room to "run" you will have a great time. if you drive your rig there you gotta be a little more careful. mine is off road only so it gets the trailer ride. i can get a little more adventurous without the worry of how to get it home.

I just bought a XJ, so I haven't wheeled at Haspin or anywhere. But I have ridden ATV's and dirt bikes there. The thing that you need to watch out for there is the Idiots getting drunk and wheeling ( Buggys, trucks, quads, bikes etc. ) and then throwing there bottles all over the place.

Also from a Sport Quad stand point, the trails are getting really chewed up.

I have heard that the trails are getting bad also. Not sure what they can or will do about it???? I hear Badlands is much better kept but a lot more strict so you win some and lose some. Haspin is about an hour and a half from me and Badlands is about 2 hours away. I live in central Indy....not a whole lot of places to wheel around here, except by the river and even those are under water sometimes....damn city
Anyway, I don't believe in trailering my rig where I wheel so I would be driving to each place and would have to be careful so I can make it back in one piece. Never been to either, but hopefully next year, that will change....

92 MuddyCherokee,
I live on the South Side of Indy. And would like to go check out White River with you sometime. I'm only in town T,W,Th though unless I'm on Vacation or Sickcation. I have ridden Quads from Southport road up to the powerplant.

Has for Haspin, I doubt that they will fix the trails. They do grade the main road thru the woods often.

I'm up for going to any of them during the week.

92 MuddyCherokee,
i'm in Indy too. i work in broadripple. my co-worker and i both have cherokees. we went to haspin a while back and it was pretty fun. the drawbacks i noticed were that the trails aren't marked at all, and yes i did see a few bottles and some trash here and there from careless jackasses. it would be nice if the trails were marked so you would know where you'e going. that's the good thing about the badlands.

i have to drive my cherokee every day to work etc. so i'm not all about submerging it in muck and nastiness or abusing it either. however, when we went to haspin it had rained and was still raining off and on. needless to say it was greasy as ever and plenty muddy. took me about 20 bucks and 2 trips to the car wash to get it clean again.

will i go back? sure! i really want to go to the badlands though.
