Since when did the trails at bruderhiem become an offroad park for trucks?

I think the trails in there are listed as multi-use. I know that I took my Jeep in there with an off road club about 5 years ago.

What is the difference anymore, some of the new SxS's have as big a footprint and bigger tires than a lot of the jeeps/trucks

True, which is why i personally think the maverick is way to big for around here, glamis sure but most trails around here were cut for quads and even the smaller sxs's barely fit.

The army has been using their trucks out there for years. I have started to notice a increase in jeeps out there but it is a multi-use area so have at it

Good the more out there the better it's easier to justify more riding areas

It s turning into a **** hole. Mark my words it will be shut down in a few years because of the abuse that is getting worse and worse. You could ride dirt bike anywhere there. Now a built quad is needed to get into 80% of the area. The other 20% is un passable when it is a little wet.

They tried to shut it down years ago when that kid died. I have noticed an increase of beer cans and garbage on the trail along with the onslaught of trucks, coincidence?

Nope it isn't.

The in-laws own the last place on the right as you head down towards the scout camp & staging area. the locals have had their complaints for years and I get it. it's the 20% that ruin it for the majority. Guys rip up and down the road at mach chicken wrong side of the road over blind hills, leave unattended fires burning, rip around with aftermarket exhaust until the wee hours, leave behind all their garbage etc etc...

But I can't say anything because back when I lived in Lamont before they were my in-laws I was camping and midnight cruising down there, but there were a lot less of us on stock machines and we cleaned up after ourselves

Responsible use is key

This is a lose-lose situation. Half of us want a clean and untouched place to ride which requires law enforcement to patrol the area, and half of us want a free for all and to be left alone. It's unfortunate that people don't respect public use areas when it comes to garbage, noise etc...I do think that the good people outweigh the bad though. I am a Maverick owner and it's built for mud...I also respect where I ride and have no intention of tearing up or going off the trail system, littering, or operating unsafely. A jeep or truck is slightly different in my eyes though seeing as there is a substantial weight difference. A Maverick is about 1500 lbs...Much less than a half ton...

You should stay out of the skeg and you would have far less issues. haha

I go out there a few times a year with the wife and always enjoy it,last year there must of been a jeep club out there and was jeeps stuck everywheres up to the headlights. Was entertaining to watch. Sat back and watched the show.

My only complaint is about the ppl with quads/sxs/dirt bikes who stop on the trail for a break and block the trail with there machines on blind cornerers. It's common sense when you stop to park off to the side.

Starting to be too many users per size of the area. When I used to ride there I went during weekdays.
