(a) What level of vehicle is it best suited for at this point: stock, mild mod (say, 3" and 31s), or heavily modified?Safari Ary said:I've never run Pott's, although my club does on a yearly basis. From my understanding it is a "forest road" that has degraded in quality severly over the past few years and is being considered for closure. It is not a network of trails, and with discussion in the air of a closure, I think it would be prudent not to hold an "event" there. JMHO.

(b) The pending closure thing is a two-edged sword. Need info on who owns the land and who controls access to the road. If it's a case of the gummint trying to abandon a legal right-of-way on the pretext that "it isn't passable and so it isn't used any more," then holding an event -- with proper permissions, if necessary -- and documenting continual use may be the best/only way to prevent a closure.
Is anyone in a position to research this?

second that! I know many clubs keep their trails locked up tight.sidriptide said:please DO NOT DO THIS IN AN OPEN FORUM... handle it thru PMs or Email.. a lil paranoid maybe but its just one way to help keep the legal places legal, not a good practice to "advertise" locations or directions for all to see..
you never know who is watching..
