Greenridge
I went up to Greenridge state park in Maryland this weekend. We checked out the ORV road, which was really a forest road (light green at best). There are some other trail there as well that we did not get a chance to check out. Has anyone been there and explored in more detail? Are there any more challenging parts to the park?
Anyway, i thought it would be a great place for Stockers, mall crawlers, and newbies to take their trucks out and have a good time, and maybe camp out as well.
Here is a link to the web page and a map.

Remember Bob, I haven't used my "weather day" this year.

Yeah - Green Ridge is pretty tame. It was my first 4wd trail. I did it in my new, stock FJ in 4-Lo, took me like 5 hours. Now, I run it in about 1 1/2 hours, almost entirely in 2wd. It's fun to do once in a while, but it's really not challenging at all.
There's a halfpipe type of spot the ATVs use that's kind of fun, and a pretty steep hill obstacle on the side that gives you a little bit of a challenge.

No pics. sorry. the ORV trail is less challenging than the access trail at Rausch. but it would be perfect for the novice. In fact we took a friend who had never taken is 4runner off road. He thought it was crazy at first... then started getting into it. I am dying to take him to a challenging trail so he can see what crazy is.
I think it was the jeep club that cleaned up the trail and they did a heck of a job.

H2O,
By your post i am assuming the trails are clear? I have called the last several weekends and was told the trails were closed because of damage from a winter ice storm. This is good to know....
