    I really want to go wheeling, but between work and family it is like a conspiracy lately.

    Awesome pictures! I need to find some more decent wheeling spots in the valley. Not a huge fan super swampy muddy muck, but I like a good trail.

    There aren't a whole lot of trails around NS without muck that are any fun. Bump and grind is the only one I can think of off the top of my head but it's called bump and grind for a reason... So many rocks....

    Big Jones isn't too too mucky, but still some muck and a washout with a rock, you either get on a pretty good angle to avoid the rock or invest in some sliders to get around it.

    I wouldn't call "Muddy Myra" the muddiest trail around, it's really only called that because there's also a "Rocky Myra". Rocky is just rocky, slow going and hard on the kidneys lol

    The pipe line can be muddy if you're adventurous, but doesn't HAVE to be.

    A lot of clubs keep the whereabouts of trails off the internet because you get assholes that ruin it for everyone (not following the read lightly principles). I can give you a heads up next time the Pirates or BC4x4 is having a club run, or next time I head out, I can show you a few.

    But it's a solid 2.7, probably worth double Dodge litres.

    That makes a lot of sense. Thought I was just missing something. There must be a few around here because I know they do that jeep thing at the fox mountain campground in the summer. Id be down to go out whenever, My rig isnt anything too wild though.

    I get between 4-450 a tank. I can get 500 if I drive like a old lady. My truck is probably a hell of a lot heavier than yours too though.
