. I've never been to that park so im pretty excited to check that place out.

Redbrid i think is about 1200 acres and I do believe that considered a state park I've been thinking about heading down there soon maybe we can get a nice size group to go down there and wheel for the day

i have this bumper without the tire carrier and the fitment was perfect, i did really like how it has the adjustability in it so you can have it line up with body lines and such perfectly.

Figured folks in the area would be able to give decent insight. Guess not...

They have a mud pit area, there are two rock garden type areas, tight trails, lots of v-notches, deep holes, always seems muddy as hell except in the middle of a drought. Has easy to hard trails. Last time I was there we had a steering box ripped out of a frame, inverted shackles, four tires off, and two flops. The last "trail" we were on took us close to 4-5 hours to go less than a couple of miles. Basically something for everyone.
