Im pulling my hair out here!!!
let me say this.... Off-Road Wheeling in Mass and NH is Rare.... that is if you are NOT a member of a Off-Road club, Espically one that is not in the Dead Link Removed .......
All the Clubs in the Association are working on finding and gaining access to LEGAL Places to wheel.
If you go to some of the mentioned places, you could be caught by Enviroment Police, and if they are having a BAD day, They have the Rights to Fine you, maybe even take your Truck......
And there are some places where we have gaied access to... after a long process of getting hand written permission from all of the Abutting Land owners....... where as we let them know when we will be on the trails near them... and they also have the phone numbers of these Enviromental police officers, and can and will call them when they see tresspassor's.
All I can say is, As you have Joined to be an Elite Member here, Join a 4x4 Club and make a difference by helping to gain places to legally 4x4, and also help keep the trail clean with Organized Trail Clean up's!
PLEASE do NOT Give us (the ones who are working to make more places available) a BAD name!

WHEELING IN MA.... HIJACKING THE THREAD
CBoug, your point is well taken, and I plan on looking up the 4wheel drive clubs as you suggest. I have zero intent on doing any illegal wheeling - it just makes it worse for everyone!
Thanks guys,
Aaron

Chris... I've been glancing through the links in your signature...But...
What would you recommend for someone like me who has never done any wheeling, has a stock truck, but would love to get into it?

you might want to check out paragon adventure park www.paragonap.com they have everything from mild to wild. though i think youre gonna find out youre going to be real limited by a lack of low range. awd does good in snow but isnt all that great for rocks, hills, mud, etc.

I'd say stay here (on the Forum) for a little bit Mod up the Explorer.... and at the same time join a Local club, Most of them all have a Stock Run once or twice a year.... and you will eventually get in to it real good!
