    My take on the two is AOAA is tighter with trees so body damage is more likely, whereas Rausch is more rocky. Rausch would probably result in less damage, so long as your careful and spotted through any mildly rough spots.
    It's not private, but it's not a state park I think. I'm not really sure what it's considered. It is public though and pretty fun.

    After being at both, I would say a Blue is a blue and a green is a green, but there's sooo many more blues at Rausch. Lots of roads (greens) between trails at AOAA

    Yeah this is why I like Rausch so much more. It's just so damn expensive. I need to get that frequent flyer punch card.

    Then I'll let y'all decide. Randy knows what my 4R is capable of, so I trust him. Maybe not for spotting, I learned from @HCJ on that.

    Might be worth it with spring/summer coming up. I think we would have already been close to burning through a card by now. I say if we go for a different weekend I vote Rausch if we stick to the 24th move it over to AOAA. Even with Rausch being more fun, might be not as fun with it as packed as I hear it is.

    Well if the rumor is true that you want to give the sliders a go, we'll be sure to make that happen!

    Let's wait and see how the weather for next weekend pans out, and go from there. That'll dictate a lot.

    Oh im sure. I was surprised at some of what it did pre-lift, so im excited now that i have a lift. Im getting a front bumper in the fall, so that should make going on blues less stressful.
