Hey all, I know it's been a while since anyone replied top this thread, but it has been a great summer. I went to the Mounds with my Argo Vanguard, 6X6. I rode about three hours and don't think I covered half of the trails. Some of the rock crwals were just too big for my ground clearance, but the trails, mud and water were exceptional. I bottomed out in a rutted area and had to get out and spin her sideways to get out. It was probab ly three feet deep, the truck area. I pulled out three other vehicles, 2 quads and a side by side. I also pulled the winch out for a guy and his wife who were in a sand rail. They would have really gotten muddy had they walked the winch to a tree. The Mounds is a great place to ride and very reasonably priced. I only rode three hours because I felt like I had been beaten up. I haven't ridden trails in 30 or more years so at age 48, I took a beating. That whole area of Mount Morris, near Flint has several County parks and State areas. Not all are open to orv's and certainly not the 50" wide kind, but you could camp and fish, small game hunt and make a weekend or a week out of it. Hope to see you out there.

I need to throw my 208tt back together and try to get over there. I completely tore it down for Ash to redo, repaint frame, fix few minor body cracks, bring the shine back to the abs....etc. Then I ran into my trainer and got that going instead. Trainer is currently sitting with a design flaw on the chain tensioners that broke the factory welds. Hydromikes is same way and he also has had problems. I need to take that apart to redesign or I am just going to ruin more on it. Anyways I'm way over due with riding with you. I cant guarantee anything but I will try. I will send you a PM with more info. I have a lot to do but these deadline things always gets me motivated.
