I\'ve somehow managed to get shoved to the forefront of an effort by a loosely affiliated group of fellow Toyota FJ Cruiser owners in the Northeast to put together a Mid-Winter Snow Trek. The idea would be to have a day-long mildly challenging point A to point B event through a scenic back-country landscape. In the process, I came across this article...
http://vtxs.org/articles/Livin%27%20March%20April%202008.pdfIt\'s an interesting article. Could it be that there are ample 4x4 trails right next door that we\'ve been completely unaware of? At this stage in my vehicle build, this is the kind of wheeling that I would love to do in addition to an occasional trip to an ORP for more challenging stuff. Does anybody have any experience with these legal \"jeep\" roads in Vermont?
Also, if anybody has any other suggestions about locations for a good snow trek of the type that I\'ve described above somewhere else in the Northeast, I\'d appreciate the info. I\'d love for the MudNuts to organize something similar. I know that rockcrawling in the snow can be very dangerous and the type of run that we are trying to organize would try to stick to unplowed out-of-the-way forest roads.
