you're right its not really a pit, it's 1-2 feet deep and deeper in places. But it was all hard packed mud until we started driving through it the past few days and thats torn it up along with the rain. I can't make it through anymore...maybe if I had lockers . Just figured we'd let some people know, have them tear it up more will take some more pics when it gets bright enough out

the pit's getting better now, deeper and stickier. Had a couple of other guys go through it so it keeps growing. See you out there

Most places around here where there is mud, it is illegal. I'm not saying where they are going is illegal cause I'm not very familiar with b-ham, but I was just wondering so they didn't get people in trouble.

no doubt!

I was gonna post the same thing...

That and the damage done by widening muddy sections of roads/trails is bogus wheelin...

as an FYI, the local FS Enforcement Officers are writing up people here in AZ if the area is posted closed in wet weather, and most of it is. You are in stuff deeper than mud if caught! It's my understanding they can fine by the foot in specific cases.

I'm pretty sure it's legal, we've had the cops drive by a couple times and the property owners, both have stopped and watched but didn't care. It's going to turn into a drainage pond for a new housing development, we even got one of the workers to take his ranger thorugh. So so far 2 Yotas and a couple of Fords have made it through, but one didn't, here's a couple of pics with its first victim it's a mid 80's f-150 with a 2 inch body lift and 32s.

Thats an alright little mud hole you guys have there. I'll have to come run through it a couple times and show you guys how toyotas really do. I'll have to have Adrian(the guy in the blue truck) show me where it is.
