I also recently went to casparius. I didnt get to go in too deep though cause the goofball showing me around was driving a 93 or so chevy baretta. Not a very good off roading car if you know what I mean. I had to pull him out a half dozen or so times before he finally gave up. Actually his tire exploded. It was rather amusing. Tyler |

LOL, i went to the creek falls this winter and we saw no postings. i rod shotgun in the freelander, poor thing needs some ground clearance but made it in pretty deep. casparis is poosted/closed but the real trails are on the backside of the mountian down by the river. will disclose the directions in person but not on the bbs. rob |

You're also an hour or two at most from Wellsville, OH. Great trails from mild to wild, mud rocks hills. Take Rt 7 south exit Rt 39 turn right follow signs to Oak Tree ATV Park, it's $10 to get in now. There are secret ways in too. joe |

Sounds good to me. I made it only as far in as the guy leading the way in a car could get. I did see the caves/mines or whatever they are. That are pictured in the link to the photos. Did anyone ever drive back into them they look like they really go back there. When I went it was really late and some people with us were scared of the dark. |

Hey Rob, it's been great so far - few little things but nothing to get worked up about. Looks like I might be taking it to Paragon next weekend. What have you been up to? Doing any wheeling or exploring? joe |

yeah, drove to the back. about 1/2 mile i guess. then a lot of the passages are blocked. i always thought it would make a great haunted house at halloween.. joe , i have been on hiatus bringing my range rover up to speed since i sold the disco. nearly a year since that went down. she is almost ready to wheel. i just dont want to get ahead of my self and start breaking stuff until all the little things are taken care of. rd |

Tyler, there are some decent trails around the Ligoner area heading towards Johnstown, PA.. mostly powerlines, yet, some decent stuff. if you're up by 7-Springs Ski area there are some trails to run. nothing serious, yet, you're out on something to get into low range. might get back that way this Fall. possibly hook-up with RD again and will let you know.
