Im from Guilderland/Albany, right by Suny Albany. And jth877 there is a bit around here you have to look for it though, and we just had a place open in Granville this summer as well. https://www.cherokeeforum.com/f13/me...-trails-33028/

 

Ive got a stock 2000 xj and a but will be looking for some trails to do even before I upgrade susp. Any info on areas to offroad would be much appreciated.

Thanks n happy wheelin...

 

Didn't know about that place! Thanks!

Come to think of it, there was a place where some friends and I went near greenfield. A small mountain that is owned by a logging company. They have marked snowmobile trails in the winter and ATV trails in the summer. I'm pretty sure they allowed jeeps- many signed the log book at the top. This was 5-10 years ago though. The trails were mainly dry creek bed (rounded rocks) and old or recently active logging roads (muddy).

 

Spotted 2 days ago around 1:30pm on Albany Ave. in Kingston
Looked like a green XJ with bushwackers and a 3 in lift with a roof bar with 2 off road lights.

 

I've seen that rig before, if its the one im thinking of it was just bought from a gentleman in Saratoga.

 

Middletown here. I have a few spots around here but nothing legal. I have a 93 with a shot front frame rail and i am buying a 92 this weekend that is solid. I have a RC 4.5" lift comming on Moday. Pat

 

Teal2door, where abouts you from if i am not far from you??

 

i got a buddy up your way with a black KJ (Liberty). he comes down my way once in a while, and he knows a few mild places up around there to do some legal wheeling on too. check him out on jeep forum... http://jeepspace.jeepforum.com/KJJEEPER. tell him i said hi... btw, tell more about your xj, color, engine, ect... i am stock too, but that dont stop me from playing boat captain, lol

 

I will be lookin forward to meet up and wheel with some of you in the area. My jeep is not much right now. Just got it a few months back. Its a blue 2000 cherokee sport, 4L, auto, w 100k, but it didnt need much except for tires. I sold the baldies and steel stock wheels and got some used snows on old rusty steel now. I really need some new wheels and tires once the cold breaks. Would like to do 31 or 32" with as little lift as possible. I think I may miss my wrangler when it comes to offroad, but we'll see.

 

doubt it XJs on 32/33s will out wheel wranglers all day long. that little extra wheel base makes a huge difference not nearly as unstable doing hill climbs and ledges

 

I finally got some tires. Id love to come play. My Son would LOVE IT! Im between Kingston and New Platz.

 

go hit a parking lot and do donuts in the 1" of snow we just got haha

 

spotted two jeeps today on my walks to and from napa in new paltz..

pre 97 green, 2dr, 3" and 31s; and a ZJ 2-3" 30-31s and a light bar, black? was dirty.

 

i'm at exit 14 if anyone wants to go wheel

 

im on the colonie/albany border, are u the one that lives in troy?
