Well looks like I have missed a bit
as since I got out of that same spot sunday ive been working like mad.
But I would ride it now cause once the rain comes I dont think we
will be able to ride much. I only know of 2 spots to cross the canel from the Alley over
last weekend 1 was about 12"-18" deep and other was 24"-36" and my bike didnt like the second
so much but I made it.
I will be riding it this weekend providing JackL and the crew are in so far looks like Sunday but maybe FRiday
nite and Saturday or all weekend just bring plenty of gas.
JackL you still have the GPS #'s I gave you.
If you go in the 1st as we did there are a few camps one really nice one with a heli-pad outside shower and toilet ect.
and a few under construction.

Do you think my Arctic Cat 250 4x4 will handle it? She runs hard and handles everything at L-Cross and Bamboo I call her my little tank. If you do I would like to go as well.
Jump aboard, if you get stuck, we'll get cha out !

If you go in the 1st as we did there are a few camps one really nice one with a heli-pad outside shower and toilet ect.
and a few under construction.
Not only do I have the first numbers, I have three other spots marked.
Still don't know if Fri night is going to happen, but Sunday sounds more than possible if it doesn't.
I sure love the second place myself!! I don't care if the water gets up to 4ft, I'll bring a jonboat to get the bike across...hahaah
I wonder if we should post the video..? I'll let you decide since I'm not even in it. maybe a little closer to the ride when we reveal the second site to the public.

You are the first, but I don't see any reason why you can't join us. The only requirement for this ride is you gotta love the mud.

FWIW: On our recent ride there, the farthest we got was about 2-1/2 miles off the alley as the crow flys. Illegal made it much farther on his ride, but that is a different story.
Here is the numbers for the furthest point we went that day. N 26.11017 W 080.64542

Ok, cool. I'll post it next week. Hopefully I'll have a few more to add to it with some killer Russian music.

Please note - Motorized vehicles, motorcycles, airboats, and all-terrain vehicles are prohibited in Water Conservation Area 3A lying north of Alligator Alley (I-75) due to drought conditions. For more information review Order No. E007-03.

Are you new here?
We are going on the SOUTH side.
It's not like they think anyone actually visiting there has Internet and can see that, that is what the signs are for and why they don't bother to make the .pdf work.
Here is an example of what is posted on the closed NORTH side.
Am I on the right site....

Matt, it's part of the Francis S Taylor but the south side, NOT THE NORTH SIDE - NOT BIG CYPRESS !
According to the FWC it's ok on the south side.

I think monday I am going to ride out there and see where I can cross with the buggy. I rather go for a ride without the buggy and get a game plan.

This is another possible path (Note Based on the 2006-07 FWC Regulation Summary & Area Map booklet) this path is outside of the Big Cypress. We must at all times remain on State Land. This path is an estimate from the bridge before the Snake Rd Station (If headed West). We can park under the bridge, there are visible trails on google earth. This ride is from I-75 to a boat ramp on 41. What do you guys think ?

Well I went out there today to see where I can put in. It will definitly have to be the "39" on this pic, I can't get between the gard rail and boat ramp at "35". I also put some more waypoints on there just looking around found what I think are a couple of camping spots. I will have to bring the garmin and load it on Google Earth when we get back
I can post the acual GPS locations of them if you want just let me know.

Well me and the gang rode out there all weekend
some pretty dry stuff and some mud here and there.
If you got a big bike it can be hard or impossible to go in at the 35.7 mm
but with the water there at the level it is you need the bigger bike.
We went in at mm39 and just rode left side trails in morning and then the ones to the right after.
JackL what happened?
