Off Roading near Chicagoland?

[meatball03]

Hey guys,

I'm looking for a trail in the Chicagoland area where I can hone my skills a little, and see how my stock '06 T4R does off the highway. Need something easy to moderate, with some challenges along the way. Any suggestions?

thanks!:surfer:

Cliffs down in Marseilles IL would be the closest, but it's generally a muddy mess. I would recommend Badlands in Attica Indiana - great trails. Or there is Redbird in Dugger Indiana which is farther away but seems to offer more "mild" trails along with a good mix of pretty crazy stuff.

Or you can hit Missouri and find W-a-s-h-i-t-a or Flat Nasty, but that's a pretty good haul down there.

Silver Lake Dunes in Michigan is also wild, not much farther. Just camp and make a weekend of it.
