I made my first trip to Haspin earlier this month. Didn't think it was bad and plan on going back sometime, but it is relatively close in comparison to most other places. There are a few challenging places but overall it seemed like a decent place to go play if it wasn't too far away. I can imagine what it looked like when wet just based on the condition of the parking area. But as said above if it was 3 hours away with other parks the same distance I would choice something else.
I've been to Wellsville many times but it has been a few years. We were always with somebody familiar with the area that could take us to all of the good spots. There are some pretty gnarly ravines and climbs. We ran one ravine trail that everybody had to winch at some point in time. Everybody had lockers front and rear with 38 to 44" tires. Never had any problems there with drunks or stupid people, but usually the hard technical trails away from the main areas kept those types away. Of course I would never want to be out of sight of my rig there.
