Yep, it's a lot of fun. Here's some pics and video from last October:

I'm the 4Runner, Heckler is the Green FJ80 with snorkel, and the other 80 that is silver is Eric who is also here in Auburn.

it's legal to wheel at ft. benning, you just have to be aware of open a closed ranges, you can get a map where you buy hunting license, but most places are just roads that lead to nowhere. and lots of tanks traps, huge mud holes, hill climbs, creek and river crossings(not the hooch), very good wheelin. i'm heading down spring break, i can't wait.

They used to have "No Trespassing" signs on the right side.

Making a trip to Morris Mountain this saturday just for the day if any one is interested in joining. It is about a little over a hour away and it cost $20, which is a lot cheaper than the fine at Tuskegee

matt broke a winch cable the first ten minutes out there and we knew it would be a day. Eric(landcruiser) and I tugged on the truck and along with some shovel work and persistence finally got it out.
