Nice X! Mine says hi. I need to make it to AND more often from Philly.

I was introducing a buddy to Wharton and the TJNT with a quick run from Atsion to Batsto this morning. This closure of Goodwater Rd is still in place at Quaker Bridge. I ran the same detour and even with all the rain the puddles were manageable. We did use the bypass on the biggest just before...

Brad, Welcome! I'm in Philly, so I'll take a shot at some feedback here. William Penn SF is spread out amongst several small tracts and there's not a lot of unpaved road to be had there. I'd recommend Wharton SF in NJ as a somewhat close alternative or go a bit further to Michaux SF in PA. Both...

It was fine. Some water to be crossed right before Washington Turnpike, but nothing too deep.

I ran the south part of the trail from Atison to Moore’s Beach today. One thing to note in Wharton State Forest is that they have closed Goodwater Road (the right turn after the bridge on Quaker Bridge Road) to motorized traffic. There are posts in the road stating that. I took the next right...

6 hours in your own vehicle with lunch break. Got out a few times to see an example or discuss an obstacle, but it was 90% driving with radio instruction.

I‘ve spent my driving years so far on sports cars and performance driving, so when I decided to get into 4x4s and off-roading earlier this year I knew I had a learning curve to climb. I spent yesterday at Rausch Creek with Off-Road Consulting Taking their 101 class. It was a great chance to see...

I looked at it recently, but subscribed to Gaia on my iPhone instead mostly for a reason I haven’t seen mentioned yet- CarPlay integration. I can use my in-dash screen instead of relying on my smaller smartphone screen while driving or mounting a tablet on the dash.

Welcome from a new Philly member!

Per the title, doing a long weekend family vacation in a cabin out that way. I’m looking to hit the PA Grand Canyon and have all the local Purple Lizard maps. Will likely hit Cherry Springs one evening. Anything a first timer to the area should be sure to hit? Mostly looking to hit some forest...

Thanks, there’s always a bit of a drive to anyplace not paved from Philly it seems. Wharton isn’t bad and I’ve been going up to the Pine Grove Area for years for spirited drives on PA 125 on motorcycles and in sports cars.

Dave from Philly with my 2008 Nissan Xterra here. I’m mostly exploring Wharton State Forest and Famous Reading Outdoors at this point. Just getting into wheeling, overlanding and such.

Dave from Philly here: Area of interest (ie. State forest, off road park)- Exploring public lands, off road parks on green trails Type of involvement (ie. Offroading, camping, learning)- offroading and learning, more day trips than camping Type of vehicle- 2008 Nissan Xterra S that’s mostly...

Joined on FB the other day based on the TNJT thread

Checking in from Philly. Just getting started with trails in Wharton State Forest and Famous Reading Outdoors.

Howdy from Philadelphia, PA. I have a 2008 Nissan Xterra S that I picked up to do some socially distant exploitation to keep me sane in these strange times. It’s mostly stock other than AT tires and a CarPlay head unit that enables Gaia GPS in-dash. I found my way here due to the Trans New...
