I'am so new I havent even got a jeep yet! I need to sell my nova first, I wanted a hobby to share with my family. Haveing fun in the outdoors, camping and exploring is better than dragracing and getting tickets. I know for sure I'am getting a xj, I'll be putting a 3" lift an 31x10.50x15 tire and rims to start.
I wanted to know of some places to go, I live in chandler. I what to find some moderate trails to take my kids on. I'am not going to be a risktaker with my kids and I'am new to AZ fourwheeling. Would'nt mind taking trips to Payson area, around Suguaro lake, Superstions.
Also want to find a good club to go with. Family clubs, I will always be taking my 3 girls. I also want to do some camping.
Thats it for now!

Welcome. It sounds like you have a plan thought out for the type of wheeling you want to do. There’s a fair amount of people here who take their kids out on the trails all the time. Camping too.http://www.dakotacom.net/~jeepster/tipshades.gif

You can do the butcher jones trail stuff. There are some good little coves that you can stop at to swim in the lake to. not to tough, pretty mellow, just recomend going out with people that know there way around out there.

what he said.
butcher jones is a great place to test yourself out at. and its fun finding your way back to the 4th cove. you can spend a whole weekend out there learning the washes
