Yay CT ..... Even the fuck-ups in CA haven't banned off-roading.... Yet.


But, yes, I have talked to many State troopers, Forest "rangers" (DEP lawmen as it were)... Anyhow, the results are always the same "Nope, sorry, wish I could tell you different, but there are no legal places to go off-roading in the state of Connecticut.".

Sure, there are unmaintained roads out there, but it's talking about them and wheeling on them that turns them into "gated" roads.

Either way, this thread wasn't created to ask you, the reader, if you knew of a spot. It was made to tell you, it doesn't matter about what spot you might know of, DO NOT DISCUSS IT HERE. Simple.

Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

There is legal wheeling in Voluntown Connecticut

That sucks to here about all that. I am glad we have some awesome places to wheel out here in CO. (and trust me I'm not trying to throw it in your face.) Really.

Oh don't worry, you can rub it in all you want, but in the end, we know and we've know for years. Ever since the lift was installed on my jeep, we knew there was no where around here to go. It's sweet isn't it?

The Northeast is nothing but a festering boil of fail on the united states of America and if it wasn't for my friends and family, I'd be the fuck out of here faster than shit through a goose.

Oh and the guy who posted that has one of the nastiest buggys around

Cockaponset state forest south of Middletown is completely legal . I have passed Forrest rangers on the trail and they don't mind wheeling there at all. There are trails that have "no motor vehicle signs" but those are only a few, most are gated periodically. They seem to open certain gated trails seasonally so that you can wheel that trail for about 4-6 months then let it recover for a year or two and repeat. This keeps the trails new and they are everything from easy to quite rough. No rock crawling but some of the trails get REALLY tough when they meet streams or marshes. Seems to be pretty popular though as there are quite a few groups that wheel it and some have even set up crude signs for trail marking. It is exit 6 off route 9. Turn west on the main road then turn just past the lake after a while you wind up on dirt roads which lead to all of the trails.

I have taken a toyota camry down 95% of these roads = not very tough and have done most all the non gated trails in my jeep in 2wd....

just saying as he said they're grated dirt roads... nothing tough about them
