[QUOTE="hwcurtice, post: 895897, member: 17044"] My .02 Even though I am new to wheeling, the thing I find most offensive is the amount of trash people leave behind. Do people think there is some trash fairy that comes along and cleans things up? And not only trash, but vehicle parts as well. Now I've only been to Reiter, so I don't know how other Off Road Areas are, but it can get a bit disgusting. Yes, I have trash bags, but not knowing what is in the trash, I need some rubber gloves as well. Last time I went, with the wife, the only place I tried to get through that was tight was on the lower (puddles) of Isabelle, and trying to see if I could steer through the bypasses that were there. Wife did a good job of warning me if I was going to hit something, and the only thing that hit was my right side mirror, but not enough to do anything but put it out of whack, again. This may steps on some toes. I know some of the fun wheeling is drinking, and I'm not talking about Crash's favorite brew, but it worries me some when I see people drinking AND driving the trails. A couple weeks ago, with #1 Son, we were leaving Isabelle and passed two Jeeps that both drivers had a beer in their hand. I just don't think that is clear thinking. I like the 'use this trail right' kind of thought process. Don't tear everything up. It only ruins it for the next guy. If I even think I might spin a bit, I get into 4Lo. Yes, Yoda is an automatic, but I think, and feel, this helps. Like I said, just my .02. Maybe a few more.... [/QUOTE]
