Theres alot of Jeeps that come down and toyotas but I have the only Xterra lol. Theres a fair number of Rangers and other rbvs that show up some done properly others are well... not lol. Its not one of those places where you need to have a certain vehicle to fit in its just a big group of guys that like to wheel and have fun and the nightlife around the campfire is pretty entertaining.

Hey guys, I am in Dubuque, IA.
I commute from Dubuque to Anamosa for work at Bennett Machine & Fabrication.
I just bought a 2001 Edge 4.0 4x4 Extended Cab w/ 142000 on it. Very stock with a mild torsion bar crank and some character on the body. I am still amazed at how capable this little truck is.....
Haven't really found a whole lot in the way for trails up here. There is some level B's though. Down near Anamosa headed south inbtween a BP gas station and a little town called Springville there's a gravel called Linn-Jones Road. Turn left if you are headed towards CR and right if towards Anamosa. About a country block down it turns level B
. Most people around here don't have rigs big enough to tear it up so even my stock truck has fun. If you get bored there keep heading east on Linn-Jones until it ends and take a left over to HWY-1 follow that until you are about a mile from Mount Vernon, IA. That level B gets pretty sketchy due to sprayers and tractors though. Just got stuck there last week. I'm on stock size crap Dunlop's off a Tacoma though. Anyway if you like to explore there are a few level B's back behind the one over by mount vernon. They are near 240th.
Anyway anyone know of any decent trails up this way?

The people that use them every day don't like kids tearing them up.
