This thread is to provide everyone a list of sanctioned wheeling areas excluding National Parks, National Forests and National Grasslands, with a coulpe of exceptions:
Big Bend National Park (Terlingua) is well known for scenic desert-style expedition trips. There is a link to a recent TLCA trip
here and information on the park
here
Palo Duro Canyon is more rugged and adventuresome. Palo Duro has two scheduled runs per year: Jeep Jamboree in May and Jeep Challenge in September. If you enjoy wheeling and aren't xenophobic, it is a great wheeling. Contact Ann Christian of the Figure 3 Ranch at 806-944-5562 to set up a group run. Some info
here & an article
here
Here's another link to a huge list of mostly out-of-the-way places, I can't vouch for it being updated or accurate though:
4x4trails.net
There isn't much "published" info on Oklahoma Wheeling, it's best to hitch up with someone that knows the areas- there is some great wheeling to be had up in Clayton & Disney (some good info here:
Clayton and
Disney). Moderate wheeling is much easier in the Oklahoma Park system and nice, scenic drives on logging roads are available around the Kiamichi Mountain/Broken Bow Area.
Post up your thoughts and help keep this up-to-date!
