Nick,
You are obvioulsy a bright young man who gets out some. I haven't been back home in over two years and I haven't been anywhere near Blacksburg in probably 15 years. That said, I know what kind of folks live out that way once you get 5 miles away from Tech and Radford an they are the kind or folks that will likely be into the 4-wheelin. My recommendation would be to stop by a local 4x4 shop and keep an eye on the local carwashes. Next time you see some guy (or gal for that matter - it is western Virginia mountain folk we are talking about here) hosing his (her) mud off, stop in and introduce yourself.
You may also wasn't to join the Virginia Forum. They seem to be prettty active or at least they were for a while.

Spring creek is a pretty good spot, it's mostly sand but everyone usually muds out there when it gets a little wet. But for the most part, you have to look; they're there, you just don't see them.

Like I said before, whenever your're driving around look at some of the roads and/or paths you're passing; they sometimes lead to some of the best spots. Just make sure it's not private property and you won't have a problem.

I live in Lubbock and am looking for a mid-70s 4x4 crewcab. I am considering a 79 super cab 2wd that is currently available but not sure yet.
Anyone in the Lubbock area?

I'm in Waco. Does this forum have a classified section to buy, sell, or trade Bronco stuff for the Texas area? I spend a fair amount of time on the Austinareastangs.com site looking for Ford related parts.
