Nemacolin

My wife and I headed to Nemacolin out in south western PA this past weekend for a little r&r. Of course we hit up the off-road academy and spent some time on the trails. This was my first return to water fording since my little incident a while back so I was a little hesitant but I was glad to get into it again...this time I won.

The course is restricted to FJs and Hummers. They will loan you one of their rigs if you don't want to use your own FJ or want to test out a H1 or H2. There was some good descents, great water fording, some mud pits and moderate rocks. It wasn’t crazy challenging, but was definitely a lot of fun. The trails are private so they require a “guide” but they pretty much leave it up to the comfort level of the driver. Overall it was one of the more fun trips yet.

How much did they charge you to take your rig on their trails? I was there last January and if it hadn't been for the blizzard, I might have taken mine out. I don't have a lift, but I don't think Nemacolin's rigs have them either.

Also, do you have an auto or manual?

I think it cost around $100. It was a gift from my wife so I'm don't want to ask exactly how much, but it was around there. I know it's more if you use one of their trucks. It was a little pricey, but well worth it in my opinion. Plus, the guide told me to call him direct next time I come out and he would take me or groups off property.

Your right, their FJs are all stock autos. I too have an AT but have a Donahoe lift that definitely helped in the water more so for peace of mind than necessity.
