which park?!?!?!?!?!?!?

frankensteinxj · 02-21-2011, 06:12 PM

Alright I figured this would be an interesting thread.
Between haspin, wheelers, big rock, dirty tutle, and 491 which do you prefer and why?
I personally have only been to wheelers and it was pretty cool, plannin to check em all out this year though.

I've only been to Haspin and Big Rock, but I'd have to say Big Rock hands down. Much more land, not as trashy as Haspin, better obstacles, etc. etc.

been to DTOR, 491, and haspin. out of those 3, dirty turtle for sure.

haspin is good for quads, but not so much for trucks, and too many drunks there. 491 is ok, very close to me so i am there alot, but small and not a whole lot to really challenge you. DTOR is nice, clean park with a variety of challenges.

want to make it to big rock soon though. of other places, i am a fan of the badlands, mainly cause wheeling up there is not like the wheeling around here.

Big rock. Since they opened it all to 4x4s....and cause its only 45 min from my house helps too.

Only been to Haspin and Big Rock. Big Rock is better for trucks. If I was going to do the drive to the Badlands, I would drive the extra 50 miles to Black Mountain. It's 7000 acres of awesome wheelin. Or to Coal Creek that has 72000 acres.

Never been to Coal Creek though. Would like to this year.

attica is my favorite park close park at 3 hours, harlan is 7 hours for me and is my favorite place to wheel. i hate haspin with a passion.

Hey if you're going to mention Harlan then you may as well throw in Slade/ Naturl Bridge, KY!!. As of now we welcome all the support to the community, don't forget to stop in the local businesses and tell them you love the area.

I live 6 miles from Slade and have been to Harlan so I can't comment on the other parks. One day though, one day!!!

I'll second that, I'm about an hour away but have been there many times and would recommend it for anyone. Lots of trail riding, lots of rocks, lots of fun!
