You have to watch out for cats, they did this to me....
funny story, Me and my buddy were at a garage sale about two months ago and the lady had a bunch of 1 gallon plastic gas cans she sold us all of them (there were 6 in all) for a grand total of 2 dollars. We filled them up with linseed oil and left them in the back of his truck. Sure enough they were stolen and we called the cops and told them that someone had stolen our linseed oil, (the cops thought it was hillarious,) and sure enough 2 days later the cops busted the guy when he had to have his car towed to the shop!
Been thinking about repeating this and keeping a "gas tank" full of linseed oil for when I have the top off so they might be more likely to go for that than for my cb or something.

In answer to your question: HELL YES!. Every weekend if I can. I was just there Sunday.
It's hard to believe such an area exists in this small crowded state.
There are over 500 miles of trails. There mud holes and pits and just beautiful areas to wheel through. All the state requires is you have a driver's license and your vehicle be registered and insured.
If you stay on the trails and don't free wheel through undisturbed grounds, dont trash up the place and be careful of others you might meet coming the other way, you are more than welcome.
A couple from Maryland I met several weekends ago, who were wheeling their TJ were amazed that there was no charge to run the Pine Barrens.
I've been doing it since late winter of this year, and every time I find new places and trails or just get lost.
I can't wait for the first time we get a good snow to out there.

And I agree, the snow would only add to it! You boys enjoy it up there but don't feel bad for us in Texas, we have plenty here too.

Man, if I lived closer... Don't get me wrong there is plenty of really fun places to wheel here in East Texas, but every video or picture of that place looks hellafun, and my favorite kind of wheeling.
