Overland Trip during 4th of July - Ouachita National Forest

I am planning on doing a overland trip during July 4th we would be leaving the night of June 30th to July 4th.

If anyone is interested in joining please let me know. You will need a off road capable vehicle that is capable of reliable off road travel.

I am not 100% sold on the K-Trail and some reports are that it’s closed and has gotten washed out.

But I figured I would see if anyone else is interested in a Overland Trip.

Damn,

I’d be in if I didn’t have a family reunion already scheduled over the week of the 4th. I hope you have an avid 4 wheeler on the crew going. I watched a buddy flip his jeep trying to winch through a washout. He wasn’t prepared for that kind of damage being a part of the trip. The reason it flipped was bad winching angle and the 4 of us being novices didn’t know to tell him not to do it. One guy that is experienced can make the trip much cheaper for everyone involved.

Hope you have a blast and post pictures of the successful trip when your done!

Be careful on that trip. There have been reports of a lot of sabotage to the trail. Spikes & what not.

Damn. Have fun anyone going!

I don’t get it?

Like ECO Terrorist sabotaging vehicles on the trail?
Someone is going to cause a flat and hop out from behind a tree?

What is the motivation?

Pleasure in ruining someones week. Maybe they setup a deer cam

They are/have been setting spikes up in the mud & what not. The the last story I read was they (eco terrorist or drug grower/makers)set the spikes up & some people came down the trail. Those guys on the trail lost several tires each
