I actually joined this site cause of this thread.....I've been reading it off and on since 2006, I dont presently own a Jeep but have owned a couple in the past, have built a few of them, and i am also pretty big into 4x4's of all types but anyways i thought i would share some stuff around ohio and florida, the 2 places that i currently live at when im not working in iraq......
Ohio.....
Ohio has always had some good stuff, Moonville Tunnel is a good one though i havent had the pleasure of going, there is alot of old Oil and Gas rigs all over the woods in southeastern ohio, I have seen a few while wheeling down there, the town of Chesire in Gallia county is one you can visit, it was a thriving town til about 7 or 8 years ago when AEP Power had to buy all of it cause it polluted the area so bad it was killing all of the residents, There is alot of fire roads down southeast of Chillicothe (Richland Furnace is the name) that is supposed to have some good mountain trails, there is an old abandoned car or two in a ravine near Paint Creek Beach in Highland county, its about a 5 minute ride from my farm, and its weird cause of where its at, there really wasnt any roads to it even back when it was dumped in the 50's or 60's, on the state woods property behind my farm there is alot of old house foundations and stuff from when it was a normal place, roads, houses, farms, everything, then the state claimed it cause they built the lake and tore mostly everything down, someplaces you can still see where the old roads ran and they are still listed on most maps, down along the river also is a good place to see alot of old boats and barges.....
Florida....
There is stuff all over florida, you just got to find it, around central florida there is alot of old mining equipment cause of all the open pit mines, i know of atleast 1 humoungous drag bucket that was left to rot and if you know where to look you can see it plain as day on RT 17 North of Wauchula, its atleast 50 feet above the tree tops, Cruise around the Green Swamp north of Lakeland some and im sure you will find something out there, over around the space coast is a good place to look cause there has been alot of towns demolished when they built Nasa....
I know ofan old bombing range somewhere in WV that is pretty much devoid of any type of living thing, my buddy said he went down there with his cousin when he was visiting him and there was no sounds, no birds, no bugs......
