Just seeing who is local 518. I am in saratoga county. I have about 55 acres behind the house. With all tight trails woods riding. Also belong to Mettowee Mud boggers club. Keep a camper up there during the summer. Look my club up on Facebook under Saratoga County 4x4 club. At some point over the spring I am going to have a Meet and great with trail ride and maybe some small prizes for most capable rig. I also have a decent size garage that I let people use if they need a place to work on there stuff. PM or Facebook the club for info on that. Hope to meet some cool people on here and get my 98 xj rolling.

Well the last I hear Big hollow rode was going to be closed off, due to excessive run off and erosion. And Buttermilk falls has been closed for about 3-5 years now. You can still go but its patrolled heavily now. To many kid's messing it up. And anyways we have had a off road park for about 3 years now up in Granville. I Spend most of the summer up there. I have a season pass and a camper up there. Its a great spot to do legal wheeling and they have more then enough trails and mud that you stay busy all weekend. Once I get my xj rolling I will be sure to get a hold of you RockyTop. Keep a eye on my facebook page http://www.facebook.com/SaratogaCounty4x4Club for updates in trail rides and local events.

I have a few good friends down on the island. they come up 2-3 times a year to go wheeling. My buddy that owns a bunch of land is from Dix Hills he moved up this way about 13 years ago.
