I organized a little exploration day trip for some local WNY Overland group members and a patron to see what's in Finger Lakes National Forest. A little known national forest right here in NY. We also check out the nearby Watkins Glen Gorge and a few state forests that proved to be tons of muddy fun!

They are really nice trails. We've used em at checkpoints for the New York Gambler 500 a few times. The FLX area is beautiful and I'm happy to call it home.

That’s the XJ you were talking about with the a T-case issue! Yeah, the linkage is an issue. Especially when the engine and transmission mounts get old and soft. Low range will do it. New engine/trans mounts and a solid shifter and it’s back on track!

it is a pretty nice area, they do wine tours all up and down the lake as well in summer and if you like racing should check out Bud at the Glen too! if you head north towards Geneva up the other end of the lake there's Tioga Downs casino and the Outlet mall.

I grew up riding snowmobiles, four wheelers and 4x4 trucks on all those roads in the national forest. Brings back a lot of memories of partying up there

Seems like a good hiking, horseback, ski/snowmobile type of forest 🤙

Hey bud. Maybe or not, useful tip. We do water crossings a good bit. We keep old tent poles with markers at 1 foot lengths.

It's amazing that those trails are tucked between the lakes out there. One of those holes looked pretty wild.
