Oh. I always get weird looks by the people who live around there. Well that's good news I guess.

I'm on open diffs too. You'll be fine, just don't go through anything that looks to deep. You might drag your pumpkin through the ruts though.

It Right there where that pond is off Inman road, to the west of scenic. It's a little subdivision thing or something and you just go back towards the trees and there's a dead end and the road turns to dirt. Have fun! I hope the picture isn't too small, posted from my phone.

The place isn't that good unless it's rained a bunch. Also you will drag on lots of ruts if you don't have at least 31's or 32's. Also watch out for sinkholes! There's one that would swallow your jeep if you aren't watching where you are driving.

We found it, messed around some, I'm on 32's an still drug on a lot of stuff. I'd like to get out there after a good rain. Is there anywhere around the area with some good hills to climb or anything like that?

There's a few hills to climb. Did you go off to the right and find the bigger mud pit? It's like a small pond when it rains good. There's a few hills around that.

No man. It's sucks. That's the only one I know of and it's pretty sketchy. Every time I go, I see several people who live there and they give me weird looks.
