Trails?

[Gs06Ranger]

Does anyone know of any trails in Southern Oregon? I only have 2wd, so it cant be nothing crazy. I would like to get my truck alittle dirty got off roadin or just some trail riding.

Any ideas that are a decent way to drive, would be great.

Thanks!

I don't know of anything in Southern Oregon, but if you are ever in the Bend area hit me up. I can show you a lot up here. Lot's of stuff that is 2WD accessable.

what about the oregon dunes? if you aired down you should be able to go a lot of places.its fun just watch out you don't jump anthing very tall and mess up your truck.it would be advisable to have a buddy with a 4x4 or a quad or two to help get unstuck though.tons of old logging roads around also.

I dont know where any old logging trails are.. Can i get some more info on that?

Also, none of my buddies have something incase i get stuck.

Also, since i am still somewhat new to the truck and off road scene.. What is Class I,II & III. I see that on alot of the off highway road pages and i am not sure what that means. Can someone tell me what 1,2,3 are..

Thanks

[camma83]

the classes are what options are on the truck, shocks, skid plates, limited slip and so on... Get yourself a highlift jack and some shovels, thats all i needed when i had my 2wd ranger.. o ya you need a passenger as well to help u dig, Also look into a comealong and some lengths of chain. When i went offroadin in my 2wd i also only went up trails and not down trail do to the gettin back out part, i got stuck one year because i went down somethin i could not get back up(But speed fixed that)

i think he is referring to the class I, II, and III that refer to quads, 4x4's, and dirt bikes respectively. they use this class system on a lot of maps to designate who can go on what trails.

Yes! So how do i kow where i can take my truck and cant? I dont wanna piss some quader off or anything.. ya know.. I just wanna have a little fun, but not ruin it for others

[TMarsh04]

I don't think you need to worry much about pissin anybody off. I used to take my truck out to an ORV park in Washington that I swear had no trails meant for trucks. A lot of the guys up there would stop to watch me try and get stuck in the narrow trails. They just get a kick out of it. I just wouldn't recommend any high speed runs, don't wanna mow somebody over!

^^^^

Rite on.. i dont do high speed.. i just cruise.. take some pics.. relaxe..and get dirty!

[Woods-Rider]

Well, i ride dirt bikes also and people can get really upset because trucks tear up some nice trails. plus if they are designated trails then usually there is a forest service guy in the area writing tickets for things like that. most designated trail systems have a sign at trail heads indicating the name, difficulty and classes allowed on that specific trail.

If you had a 4x4, you do the McGrew trail out of O'Brien. I plan on running it this summer.

Is it even close for a 2wd..or just stupid?

[JFA_Spyderman]

When we were at Tayhua this summer, I was leading the trail and this biker came flying around the corner against traffic. I was going pretty slow so he barely missed me and went off into the underbrush. Some people are idiots.

No way for a 2wd.

[Gs06Ranger]
