NOVA Off-roading?

Anyone know of any good off-roading areas in Northern Virginia. Ideally I'd like to find somewhere to cruise around the trails for a bit, then hop out and hike for a while. Lastly, I'd like to set up camp (near a pond/lake to get in some fishing) and have some beverages. I have seen some of the pics that people have posted from out west and I'm jealous! I'm sure that I could find somewhere around here, but figured I would go on a recommendation instead of just a random place. I've seen "Deliverance".

Here's a link to a site in Western Md. (About 1 hour west of Frederick). Several miles of trail. I had a bunch of fun there last month with an 07JK.

Whats the trail like here? Can a Stock Wrangler do it? It just fire Roads? Rough trails... This place seems like a great place to go camping for a night, do some fishing (even though I have no boat), and try out my new JK if the road isnt to demanding...

Any pics of the trail?

Sorry for the delay in reply! The thread was moved from the JK technical forum to here.

The trails are generally tame. A perfect place to test the waters in a stock Jeep. A little mud, a little rock, a lot of fun.

Trust me! I am not a hard core wheeler. This was enough to get your 4low lubed up without risking any damage to your rig.
