Where to go off roading near Salem Oregon...

I am a little new to off roading, but have this saturday free to go off roading. I was thinking of going out towards Detroit area but I think there is still alot of snow out there, anyone know where I can go not too far from Salem Oregon for a little off roading? Or point me towards a web site with Oregon trails.
Nevermind, I just noticed the sticky
Also, what class is the FJ?
Thanks!

(Posted this in the Oregon OHV thread as well, but figured I'd reply here as well.)

The FJ is a class II according to the Oregon ORV permit schedule: Oregon Parks & Recreation ATV Permits

Make sure you pick one of those up, they will ticket you without one!

Re: Where to go off roading near Salem Oregon...

Well maybe next time, huh? And by the way, those stock tires would probably be ideal for the sand if ya air-down to about 20-22 lbs. All these bigger traction tires really just dig in and throw sand................stockers would glide more on top of & over the sand instead of into it. Traction really isn't the problem, it's the digging into it that stops you. Just my opinion though.

What type of Willy's does your friend have? I have a '52 Wagon. It needs alot of work but it runs It was going to be my offroad rig, until the FJ came along. Now all my restoration money, has become FJ Mod money
