So looking to do a little offroading this weekend. I have the RZR down here from Parker and looking for a close spot to go. I have always gone to Johnson Valley 2hr 30 min drive. Anything else around? Anyone want to go?

Roher Flatts (SP),Gorman, Jawbone, Dove Springs, Spangler, Cal City- cal City kinda blows in my opinion but if your looking something close, its an option.

I know Gorman is small and marked trails, but there is some descent stuff out there and you can get into Frasier Park from a few of the trails.

Also I know their is some great riding/ off road trails across from Glen Helen towards Arrowhead/ Crestline area.

Barstow has got to be closer than all of those places...?

Or you can take Cleghorn exit off the 15 and take the trails to Lake Silverwood. Some good riding and views back there.

This! Hodge road is quieter but you need to know where your going once you stage there. Or the next exit it Outlet Center Drive. From Outlet Center Drive you can head to SlashX for lunch and there is a lot of good riding all over that area. Rode all over out there when I was in my teens. It has a lot of different terrain and you can Trophy Truck it all day long out there in your RZR.

Barstow or El Mirage was always one of our go to spots when I had the Rhino. Fun places to go to for a quick jaunt.

Gormon is awesome "semi foresty" trails. I haven't been there in a long time because my bike is at the river, but I want to go back soon!

No you are already in the winter months so you will not have any problems out there. Probably lots of AZ plated machines out there. OHV only is fine.
