I would say Ozark for having a tad more ground clearence but realisticly they should be pretty much the same.

id say recon, you can keep the front end up real easy, i have one, and hit some nice mud, it wasnt until i tried to drive through a bever pond and like 4 foot deep muck that i had to be pulled out. oh and the recon has ***** to the walls.

It would probably depend on the riders, gearing, weight, and tires. The Recon makes it's way through mud holes without problems. It's nimble enough to go around or over anything it can't go through. The Recon has some good stock tires on it. (Goodyears) I can't speak too much for the Ozark but I know that the Recon is up for the job. Really either machine would probably get you there and back.
