Winter Hoosier Nat'l Forest trip

[ImperialFleet]

Not real familiar with the area. I've wheeled on Combs at night, that's about it. Anybody with more knowledge of the area wanna get a ride together? I'm thinking sometime in Jan or Feb.

Sounds like fun if we can get a trail guide!

[TERESIA]

sounds interesting.

I have never been, but, I am willing to lead. :D :rolleyes:

I'm thinking Payton might be more familiar with respects to trail guide duties. We'll wait and see. You hafta be real careful down there due to private property limits here and there, but it is a kickass place to go and you can camp in a ton of places.

Are you planning to camp in Jan. or Feb.?!!! :eek:

I guess that's my Infantry coming out.

Anyway, I've got all the gear I need to camp on any terrain in any weather. I'm game for camping if anyone else is? That's cool if we just want to make it a day run too. It only takes a couple of hours to see the trails in the area around Combs.

EDIT: A little Bar/Grill action afterwards sounds great to me!

not plannin on camping personally live only 30 mins away.. sorry..

but its not a badarea to play...
tehres alot of out of bounds areas..

for the most part its all goveremtnet land as long as u stay on the road they wont say nothing to u.. i think they give ya bout 15 feet either side...

and when i say u gotta stay on the road ,..parts of the road have wash outs 4 foot deep! that runs across back and forth and along with the road.. lot of rocks mud. as far as campin theres motels in bedford an seymour and sum good places 2 eat.. couple of nice lil bar and grills..so if any one is interested in motel picing or what not..

i can get any of the info ud need..

[payton]

That's the only thing I remember about the area that made a real impression on me, the DEEEEP ruts.

[payton]

its been a while since ive been out there .. ill run out here on my bike one of these days.. and get a feel for the place..again..

yeah i know what ur talkin out ..that will take ya in to the back side of brown county.. theres sum nice palce to stay there also.

[edudley]

I'm in just let me know when and where and what I can do to help out.

[jkirisits]

Sounds fun... where is this at? I might be in, depending on when, we already have the where.
Since payton only live 30 minutes away, does this mean party at paytons? that has a good ring...

I was there today and it was pretty fun. Keep in mind that I'm new to off roading, but I think it would be fun. I would be up for going again.

[kennedy]

[PUjeeper]

I'll be game. Someone plan something, i'm a dumb irresonsible kid so I'm not gonna do it, but someone who knows the area and is gonna lead should start getting this together. Sound like a fun time.

[payton]

[Elizabeth]
