    ok true, but I just wonder if it is being enforced now, or what would drive everybody away. It was strange to see it completely empty.

    By reading about that new guardrail, I would tend to side with the fact that someone is trying to keep people out.

    360 has been always illegal to wheel at. It's always been private property. People are known to get good size tickets out there.

    Bridgeport is only about an hour north of Dallas. Totally legal.

    Northwest OHV Park in Bridgeport, TX is northwest of Fort Worth. Small public park, cheap to get in, good mix of trails, easy to get to. Perfect for a day trip.

    Barnwell Mountain Recreation Area in Gilmer, TX is east just north of Tyler. Large public park, reasonable fees, trails from your Civic could do it to a buggy will have problems, a bit of a drive from Dallas. Great for a weekend of camping and wheeling.

    If you are east of Dallas, Barnwell is probably worth the extra 30 mins. But both are great parks that will show you what you can do with your truck.

    If you have predator steps take them off. I learned the hard way. Rock sliders are preferred.

    Toytec ultimate lift kit, light racing UCAs, ARB bumper and full skid plates underneath. Looking into redoing the suspension and maybe repainting the ol' Taco.

    Read my post, everywhere else is a good place to get your shiny new truck impounded.

    I wonder if they fixed it. It looked washed out when we were there. Unless Im thinking of the wrong hill.

    The picture @JINeration posted is under the power lines looking away from the three trails that go down the hill from the base of the far right one. My guess is right here. I tried that trail last year and couldn't get it open in the front as I was the wrong length, kept getting caught front and rear at the same time. This spring it was way worse.
