...and where you can't take it! it's simple - keep our roads open, stay on the damn trail! Miles & miles of dirt roads in California are getting closed every year due to mis-use, wilderness protection & endangered species. Please obey signs & help prevent damage to existing roads & trails. Over use, tearin' it up, free wheelin' will only lead to trail erosion and the closing of more off road routes.	4x4 Camping California 4x4 Camps OHV California Back Roads California Off Road Maps California 4X4 Clubs Favorites Routes 4WD OHV Parks in California

Sport Utility Vehicles are like excuses; everybody's got one! Each year, thousands of Californians jump on the SUV bandwagon. For most, they're "making a statement" and have no intentions of ever allowing their tires to touch the dirt. For others, those with an adventurous side, the vehicles open up a whole new world of exploration and excitement.

Your eyes sparkled when you first gazed at your new vehicle. The places you could go; the vast wilderness to explore and the terrain you could conquer. Advertisements bombard us daily with the adventure and lure of secluded camp spots and the great fun that awaits us all. Yet most of these "yuppie-mobiles" will never see the dirt roads they were purchased for. They are merely modern day station wagons, forever shuttling the masses between soccer practice and the mall. Venturing off the beaten path can be difficult when you're stuck in the daily grind. We can help you break free from your imaginary chains & find a new path for life and that sport utility of yours.
