Just outside of STL, MO and just joined this group looking for like minded folk, that aren't into building beaters, just to destroy within a years time woods wheeling. Been there, and done with that.
I still hit the off road parks but mainly to test new mods and camp out. I started going to SMORR in 2008, and have watched the trails change from easy going to rock bouncer required. Moonlight is an easy going park for a day run, but if your mindful of paint, wait until late fall thru early spring. The overgrowth on the trails gets thick.
I prefer to head out west these days, and Ouray CO area in the San Juan Mtn's, is my absolute favorite destination. I would rather sacrifice all small local trips to be able to get out there once a year, and is what I have been building/gearing up for. My problem is finding others to travel with that far from home. Safety in numbers, on and off the road. I have made friends from all over the country doing these types of long distant trips, and we do meet up in places like Moab, Buena Vista, Silveton, and the likes every 2-3 years, but man that is one long and boring road trip to make solo. lol
With that said, my goals here on OB are this....
I would love to eventually be able to make these long distance travels with OB members from my area, and meet up with other members from other regions in NM/AZ/UT/CO, for some planned out trails and off grid camping.
I am building my adventure trailer now, and should be ready by next spring for it's maiden voyage. :)
