Also check on this site under "Open Discussion", it's kinda funny someone brought up the same topic and there are some responses in there.  Is it worth, well 1st I have to 2nd what Ford4x4 said, but to me yes it is very worth it.  Get a good deal and make sure if you are going build a camp or anything, that you can get to it. 

But I hear RR is great!!!  And just think you would always be able to ride somewhere - good luck.

RR sucks, don't go there. It's too crowded and too many bugs, plus we hate to share.  Smiley

I love going up there, but make sure you have everything you eed before you go back to your camp b/c it is a pretty far drive to a local wal-mart.... But you also have to watch out for the scams on deeds up there.... Some people are only selling one spot on their deed which means that you can only access RR with one person ( unless it's your spouse ) and you can't break camp anywhere with an access only deed....

They need to do the same at SE. This past weekend dirt bikes were doing doughnuts in the middle of the main trail and on more than one occasion almost hit friends of mine head on by not paying attention.

Well in 2 years out at SE I've only had one close call with another ATV and it was both of our faults going too fast around a blind corner. However I've had multiple close calls with dirt bikes. I never see them cruising down the trails at 10-15 MPH like most ATVs they are usually flying down the trails at 30+ MPH. This weekend in particular we had three close calls and in all cases they just flat out were going too fast and weren't paying attention. Alcohol will obviously affect anyone but alot of these close calls are teens riding the bikes not adults.

we just gotta be careful. yea they should pay attention but if we wanna ride fast we should be able to. i ride a yfz and dont think for a split second im gonna ride it at 10-15 mph out there. if i can find a SAFE OPEN place to ride fast i will. im not gonna go haulin off through the woods at 50 not knowing whats there. the responsible people that ride dirtbikes suffer cause a couple of idiots ride stupid and careless. i agree they shouldnt ride that fast around turns they cant see around but on a lot of trails you can see for a long ways in front of you. im just sayin all of us shouldnt suffer cause of a couple of idiots actin stupid.
if they outlaw bikes they should outlaw alchoal. if they think people act too stupid on bikes they should think people act too stupid drunk too. just my opinion. im not tryin to start an argument (that is not what this site is for) that is just what i think.

I'm not saying people should crawl everywhere out there. Along the canal road I fly down that road. But the problem is when they do it down the main trail before the power line mud hole where the road is narrow or when they fly down the canal road they need to stay in the center of the road but they don't. They stay to the outside and many times people come off of a side trail and can't see till they pull out.

I'm also not looking to argue just stating what I've seen many times over and the perception that many ATV riders have out there.

Just some advice.... Don't put too much money into building anything, we lost EVERYTHING we had at our camp when that fire came through.... So far we figured it is going to cost $8,000 + just to rebuild .....

Ha Ha! Nice try, but I don't think they're buying it.  Plus, they know about the wet T Shirt contest every Saturday night and the free moonshine, so that cancels out the bugs and the crowds.

I'm not sure why he's laughing, but we have insurance on our trailer. 


We got a nice 30' Cherokee.  I'd hate to have it burn down.  Lots of people got torched in the spring fire.

Those Cherokee trailers are sweet.  I've seen them while trying to find trailer for our camp.  But then again I love anything with the name cherokee (where do you think cheropride comes from).   Cool

My insurance company said as long as it was for personal use that it would
be covered. There are a lot of places you can camp that don’t offer water.
I am referring to a travel trailer and not a constructed cabin

Tek, is that your camp that the fire burned a complete circle around but didn't touch?

I was riding out there, and saw that.  Crazy..everything else around it is scorched to the ground.
