I was really disappointed I didn't hit the record button when he went through that deep mud in the powerlines. I remember that little stream we saw on the powerlines, right? He drove into it, and that mud was about 2 ft plus deep and like quick sand. Riding that 6 wheeler on the water was kinda a challenge for me, I couldn't get it to turn the way I wanted it to go. But it is amazing how you can just ride out on any body of water you please and go where no atv would dare.

Davesexplorer. We were SE of Treverton, about 23 miles SE. DS2 firgured TT is about 23 miles away fro where we ride. This place is off burma Rd in St Clair PA. Reading Anthracite owns a bunch of land back there as well. There is a big area across 61 that they also own "which I still have not checked out yet". There is also somes trails that I found on our last trip that I have not ridden where we usually go.
BTW DS2, they actually have a make shift gun range right of Burma there. Downndusty and I got off our machines and walked up to the area, they have tables set up and hundreds of bowling pins out in the feild for targets.
Anyway, I think you would like the St Clair trails, there is alot of them and they go on for miles. Plenty of mud holes to play in, provided there has been a good decent amount of recent rain. There is this one mud hole which you see in my pics, that we always go into, and has the potential to grow longer if more people discover it and start riding through it. There was a snapper turtle in it the other day I noticed when we ride through it. This time I went through using locking diff and got right out of it with little effort. But like I said, it's got the potential to grow in length. Right now I'd say it's about 40-50 ft long, but would love to see it double that in size, cause there is another mud area that retains water about 50 ft down the trail from it.
I've heard about TT, you wouldn't happen to have any more pics of the mud holes would you/

Oh okay you fellas are down toward 61, I've only ventured out that way from Trevorton not started from there. I park at "The" coal hill in Trevorton and ride from there. There are some major mud holes (I'm talking jeep swallowing ones) not too far from where I park at. My father will have the ones of us in them on Saturday I'll try to get them. Here are some pics of when a big ol party of off-roaders attacked the pits last fall.





an idea of depth, this cherokee was BIG, but so was the hole..


There are plenty of "puddles" nearby after a nice rain as well...

Sometimes I forget I have a sport quad. Apologies for photo-hogging your thread just sharing.

There is a group ride this Friday planned for RAC. So all are welcome to ride with the group this Friday off Burma rd area. The group is mainly PA riders, and they usually get their around 10-11am and ride till 3-4 ish. If I am able to go, I usually ride to late, but don't know if I am going or not yet because ATV is in the shop getting a tune up and new clutch kit, so hopefully it will be ready before friday.
