Ok, so I got a chance to go on a preview/pre-run for part of the Jeep Jamboree event that will be at Anthracite Outdoor Adventure Area in 2 weeks... That place will be awesome when it opens up (rumors are next spring), it's huge and has a LOT of trails already made (apparently people have been wheeling there for decades), they just need to be refined a little and mapped. We were in a large-ish group, with rigs ready for greens-high blacks. We didn't do that many trails, but saw a lot of area (21 miles on the trip odometer) and spent some time on a nice rock garden and a new technical trail.

There is a trench/gully type section that's in a black trail, just cut recently for the Jamboree run... paint will be lost in this trail, we had 3 Jeeps out of the 8 that attempted it lay on their sides. It has three sections, with an escape before/after each one ( we created the second one... lol), the first isn't too bad if you can pick the correct line and stay on it, but the rest are more difficult. I've got a video I'll put on youtube later of one of the guys smacking a rock with his passenger side door (this spot, but different Jeep) . Another lost the driver side tail light and license plate.
It's only a half-hour past Rausch Creek, so it's not that bad of a ride, either. They're talking about it being open to all sorts of vehicles, they already do ATV classes there and we met a few ATVs and dirt bikes on the easier trails and access roads. The access roads are passable to a 2wd SUV/pickup which will be nice, a lot of them have some puddles though, so I wouldn't advise taking a car on them. We hit 20mph a few times running the access roads and green trails (was annoying since at 18mph the Rubicon swaybar reconnects!).
