I'm a Gen-Xer who grew up in Utah, but joined the Navy right out of high school and never really got back there to off-road until recently. I've had 4x4 vehicles for most of my life, including a 1996 Toyota 4Runner and a 1999 TJ that I regret selling. Although I've almost always had 4x4 trucks, I wasn't really able to get back into serious off-roading until we purchased our 2020 Jeep Wrangler. Now I feel like I'm making up for lost time. We currently live in SW Washington and love the OHV parks here and in Oregon, but we love visiting both Utah and Arizona. Our plans will be taking us to Colorado in September to the Ouray area where we hope to complete such iconic trails as Black Bear Pass and Poughkeepsie Gulch. I also plan on contributing trail maps of the Central Oregon trails when I get a chance.
