Hi,

I'm new to off-road riding, and would like to take my new Jeep on trails suitable for beginners, any suggestions for western Vermont or CT? I'll be in the Milford area this week, and Vermont for the weekend.

Cheers,
Sheila

I wonder how long it will take for this to turn into a land use argument, like every other thread that mentions ct.
I am not new the the jeep community but I have been out of it for a couple years now. I used to go wheeling up in southern NH when I lived there but now I am in Hebron CT and just recently bought a new jeep. If you hear of any good wheeling locations let me know, I wouldnt mind getting back out there.

Bruins I live a few towns over from you. There are a few places I know people go, but no legal wheeling around here unless you know landowners who grant you permission.

Nice, what town are you in?? Any jeep events around that you go to? I am new the the area and dont really know too many people?
Im from MA all we have is powerlines with 45 to 50 degree hills full of rocks:2thumbsup: and like one said we need permission from landowners aka enviroment police

Not True there are old unmaintained roads in W. Ma you just have to do some homework.
Hey Sheila, there isn't much in CT. Just dirt roads in state forests. Do you know anyone with land here in CT? If so, let me know haha. I live in Derby and work in Stratford, so I am close to Milford...actually used to live there for 3 years.

If you are looking to get your feet wet or are a beginner, there is a decent little road in Shelton that is actually on the map and is marked as a town road. It is more challenging than your standard dirt road but it is only spans less than 1 mile. PM me if you want to know where that is.
Try The North East Offroad Vehicle Alliance

my neighbour used to go to CT to wheel a stock run called pain hill don't know exactly where it is i think its close to i84 though
New to 4 wheeling maybe try a Jeep Jamborree. There is one in VT.

Jeep Jamboree USA has Jeep events all over.
Nice!

I am new to wheeling as well and am looking for some beginner terrain. I am pretty close to Shelton and would love to hit that road. I know you didn't offer it to me, but I hope you don't mind if I PM you to ask where it is.

Thanks!

Nova is having a Trail fest in Pa Aug 26-28 www.nova4x4.org
I am near Danbury so that wouldnt be too far for me. Could you PM me the road? Thank you.
