Suggestions for Modern Jeeper Adventures

There are a lot of areas around the Phoenix area that would be awesome for a group. Table Mesa has a decent sized system of trails, just outside of Table Mesa there is the backroad to Crown King which can be as hard, or as easy as you want, meaning every major obstacle has a bypass and there are stellar views on the trail. There is Box Canyon outside of Wickenburg that is less than an hour away, and Box Canyon in Florence that is just beautiful, with lots of associated or nearby trails like Elvis, Jackhandle, Reymert mine, Montana mountain, hackberry Creek, etc. tons of stuff to do around Phoenix. I could easily wheel every day for at least a month and not do the same trail twice or travel more than 50miles.
Hot Springs Off Road Park. Formally superlift ORP. Until recently it was considered an east coast Mecca of sorts due to it ammentities and various trails for all levels. It’s almost impossible to get lost in the park because it is so well labeled. Several local clubs can help (including myself) in guiding any skill level for an event such as a (long) weekend event with dinner.
I must also not that there are rumors the park is up for sale and someone such as yourself, Mr Del, may be able to shed some light on the struggles even the private parks face.

Windrock! 70k+ acres of land. You could literally drive for weeks and never see it all. It has all skill levels. Including ones that even buggies have issues with. Plenty of deer, hogs, elk, bass, caves, mud, sand and other things to see and play in. Best of all there is lodging and campsites on Windrock property.

All sound great!

#1)”Hard Core Adventure: Show off your MC flex and test (and I mean ‘test’) your armor!” — Wolf Caves in Mason, TX. Owners are wonderfully friendly and accommodating, and the park is amazing and beautiful, with its explosion of red granite. There is plenty for all levels, but the proportion of hard-moderate, hard, and extreme is higher compared to medium and medium-easy. Camping is available on the property. Dogs are allowed. Texas wine country is about 40-50 miles east. The San Antonio jeep club (San Antonio Jeep Exclusive) guides for the Jeep Jamboree USA (Texas Spur at Inks Ranch in Llano) and many of thise members/guides wheel regularly at Wolf Caves — they mey be a good resource for MJA event. While I’m a vegetarian and it pains me, there is legendary mesquite Texas BBQ in Mason and Llano.
#2)Magical Big Bend National and State Parks. Big Bend doesn’t have the majestic beauty of the Sierras, Moab, or Eastern mountains, but there is just something magical about it, and worth visiting. There are no difficult or technically challenging trails. Black Gap Road in the national park is a Jeep Badge of Honor trail. The state park is prettier than the national. Star gazing is amazing with complete dark skies. Great camping and many, many remote areas available for exploration.

Silverton Colorado has many trails. Black Bear, Poughkeepsie, Corkscrew, Picayune Gulch, Minnie Gulch, Maggie Gulch, Browns Gulch, Red Mountain, Grey Copper Mountain, Kendall Peak, Stony Pass, Mineral Point, Engineer Pass, Cinnamon Pass to name a few. Silverton has many of these trailheads within minutes of the town. We have been going there for many years and never tire of the beauty of the area. We will be there pretty much all of August 2019 and would be happy to share adventures with fellow Jeepers.

Could be an awesome way to run a trip of wheeling at one park, travel day and then wheel in another park.
K2 is not that far from Wolf Caves either.
Two for one there, and then some wine tasting in Fredericksburg!
Just a thought.
