Let me see what I can dig up, I've been back there a bunch of times. Place is a hell hole. Got stuck back there with 6 jeeps for 18 hours once.

Where is it exactly?

We finally got it out close to 5am this morning right before it started raining thanks. I just need to get it started now which it did for about 10 sec. It's off of the trail back behind the target. Probably a little sloppy back there now since the rain. You really got stuck back n there with 6 jeeps?

Who owns the land? If you know, do you have their permission in writing? If the answer is "no" for either of the questions, it's trespassing, signs or no signs, cops, or no cops. Cops can't give a ticket if there aren't any sings, but they can talk to the city and make it happen. Only wheel on land that is documented as public and/or that you personally have written permission to be on.

Sounds like a cool spot, but we gotta keep things legal for the sake of our sport. That's why I travel to wheel. Yeah, it sucks when there are spots I could go here, but I'd rather be a responsible off-roader, not one who damages the sports image. Not saying that's what ya'll are doing, just saying what often gets ignored.

I can absolutely understand the want to keep the sport respected and there are no places that I would normally go around here except for culpeper va to go wheeling without having to spend more than $100 in gas. ATVs are somehow bypassed and allowed to visibly Be trailerd to this one specific place and you are guaranteed to see activity several times a week. Two wrongs don't make a right but when does fairness come into play? I am not one to complain and do nothing so I have taken the time to write congressmen and the governor I insist everyone to do the same. And untill more options become available for us, I will keep visiting my new found playground and treat it with respect for others who may use it just like EVERYONE else that rides it has done for god knows how many years it been used.

Yes its trespassing, privately owned land. There aren't any No Trespassing signs but people regularly ride 4wheelers back there. Still shouldn't be back there without permission.

It would be on the safe side to say talking about it is inadvisable on the forum.

He tried to go through the death puddle, thing killed a Toyota Pick-up on 40s. He got lucky that the front diff bottomed out before he could get to the deep part.

I wouldn't recommend going back there, you've already found out that you can get yourself stuff really easy. Every part I've ever broken on my Jeep while wheeling was there.

and yes, we got 6 Jeeps stuck back there for 18 hours. Took every bit of 18 hours to dig/winch everybody out.
