i live in RI and there is like NOWHERE to take my x out where she wants to be!! i mean there are little places i take her out for a run, but she wants to go 4X4'n!!!!

 

There does not seem to be a whole lot of places to go here in the Northeast. Dam Liberals want everything restricted up here. Evil conservatives like me want to get out and crush stuff! Seriously, the Adirondacks have a few logging trails in the summer. That is the only place I have found. Maybe others can help.

 

Come to the South where muddin' was born.....

We got more places to mud down here than anywhere else!

We'll even treat ya to a jug o'moonshine......

 

Plenty of trail up here in new hampshire. Try a google search. I mostly go out on my atv, and where I go no excursion is going. I know there are jeep trails up here, but you might need a lift kit. But I do know of this one little mud hole, not too deep either......

 

Go to JeepForum.com and look for a club near you.

 

Where in RI? I'm in RI too, up in Providence.

No real public lands, and a lot of the trails are far too tight for our trucks to travel without major body-damage.

A Barrier Beach Permit can be fun:

As for trails in the woods, check out the events category in my club's forums:

We have runs open to guests every-other month.

 

i live in north prov off mineral spring

 

barrier beach???

 

You're right near me; I'm off Smith St., near PC.

"Barrier Beach" simply refers to the beaches on the ocean. East Beach in Charlestown is the longest trail you can access in the Summer; there are a few more you can access off-season to actually go on the beach face. There are primative campsites on East Beach accessed by the sand trail, and just a long loop of sand trail that takes you out to the opposite side of the Breachway. You need to air-down your tires to about 12-15psi, and run in low-range,but at least you won't tear up the truck's body.

 

i looked in your gallery, i think ive seen your X on the road before

is it beach sand?? i thought even 4x4 can get stuck in beach sand??

 

I'm on Mineral Spring quite a bit; everything from getting milk at the Cumberland in Centerdale to bringing my daughters to the library to getting things at Autozone. Not a lot of X's in our neighborhood, are there.

And yes, it is beach-sand, even on the sand-trails. You can EASILY get stuck out there on the sand, especially in a rig as heavy as ours, which is why airing-down is so crucial to staying on top of the sand.

There are a few other trails around that require 4x4, but again, it would be tough to get an X through there without major body-damage. My X is strictly a tow-rig for the 4x4 of mine on which I don't mind getting some more body-damage:

 

but you cant go on the beach without a permit??

 

Exactly.

In fact, you need the park-pass, and then the additional barrier-beach sand-travel permit. Trouble with that is the sand-permits are good from July 1 to June 30, so if you buy one in the beginning of the season, you have to ANOTHER come July.

Good ol' RI...

 

are they expensive?

 

$50 for the season.
