I wish there was something in the immediate area, but I know there is not. I am just not sure of where near by. There are no maps or anything that says where we can do some mild off road that will not destroy your vehicle. I am willing to travel, I just need some idea of where to go. Thanks

New member from Loveland, OH (Cincinnati outskirts) here!

Anyone know of any trails in the northern Kentucky, SE Indiana area? I'm planning some weekend trips to Wayne National Forest and RRG in Kentucky, but hoping to find something a little closer to home for 1/2 day drives.

I’ve found gravelmap.com helpful in finding places to softroad. I drive a 2018 Ford Escape so have to be careful. We’ve found some great places to explore in southern Ohio. It’s fun to be out and only pass people in side by sides and quads.

Didn't know about gravelmap.com. Thanks for mentioning!

Jeremiah. Get with Tony Merriman out of Columbus - he's an OB member and also runs a FB group called Weekend Wanderer's. Also, join the Overlandbound - Midwest group if you haven't done so already and introduce yourself. There is a Toyota specific trail ride this weekend I'll be in attendance at this weekend in KY on the Daniel Boone Backcountry Byway if interested.

Thanks, I will check it out, I am in the OB Midwest group on FB, I will check out the other group. I need to get my alignment done before I drive to much as I just replaced my ball joints, tie rod ends and installed "Taco Tabs". but I will definitely try to make it this weekend.

I'd love to see your Gladiator and drool a bit! May do the same for the new Bronco as well! It says open to all toyotas so I think it's a toyota only event (probably because it's sanctioned by the TLCA). There are several vehicle agnostic events though that go on through the groups. I'd be more than happy to get you a list of events.

Hello from Aurora, by the old Geauga Lake lol. Glad to be a member but not a lot of good places around me to escape

Man, I spent many a summer at GL working the games. Lots of strange memories from that place.
I was just in there the other day for training. It’s weird seeing it so desolate

Checking in from right between Cleveland and Akron along 77. Just picked up my Jeep earlier this year and brand new to offroading and overlanding in general so I'm pretty excited to join some groups and learn more and get some experience
