OB Land Between The Lakes Trip

[EisenYota]

I get that. However the note directly underneath states if you bring wood in make sure it's all burned before you leave. Either way, I am completely cool with buying some prepackaged wood and not hauling 150 lbs of timber. Plus the wife would be pissed about the tree sap lol.

 

[EisenYota]

Out of curiosity, somone mentioned turkey bay along with 300 level trails. The only times I have been to LBL was on a boat. What kind of trail riding should I expect? I do hope it is more adventurous than the TN dirt devil.

 

[VanHoman]

There are several YouTube videos of LBL Turkey Bay trails. Some of the trails appear to be quite difficult, with steep accents, decents, and deeply rutted sections.

@EisenYota Hadn't been to T.B, but I do know there are some good trails spread throughout the area. Also have heard about a friend or two getting stuck out there after a rain. You shouldn't be disappointed.

 

[EisenYota]

Excellent. Either way it will be good to get away for a weekend.

@EisenYota if I come out I would be down to visit Turkey Bay for a day. Nothing too crazy there from what I tried when I went but they have some steep climbs, mud pits, and some technical parts.

Also, you can count me in!

Here's a video of my first time at LBL. You can see a bit of the Neville Bay camp site at the end of the video (from 3:12 to the end).

I apologize in advance for mine and my wife's language.


*edit: None of this was at Turkey Bay. These roads go for 100's of miles all throughout the park.

 

[EisenYota]

Very cool. Hopefully we get a little,rain before so we can play in the mud. Campsite looks huge.

Trust me... you don't want it to get muddy out there. It's brutal.

LBL is much more fun when it's dry. That mud out there takes no prisoners.

Lol.

Now now.I know you drive a Land Rover, bless your heart. You should come to the dark side and try a Yota. They are much more forgiving.
Let the bantering begin lol.

My wife and I were planning on driving up sat morning. Wish I could go Friday but thats not possible with our schedules.

 

[Theo]

If a Yota puts you on the dark side,where would my isuzu and nissan put me? Never mind, I don't think I want to know the answer...haha

Well I just got a set of terra low transfer case gears for the amigo that I hope to install in time. Otherwise I'll be in the frontier.
