Got out for some camping last weekend.
The trail heading out was ROUGH... Local gov website said high clearance vehicles necessary.. "ok sure" as they are usually not as bad as they say. The last 12 miles were "gravel roads" and the final 6-7 miles were loose rock, huge pot holes, ruts, everything you could imagine. It took us about 90 mins to travel those final 6-7 miles. I probably could have gone a bit faster had I aired my tires down, but my brother and buddy were in their cars, stock 07 Outback and stock 21 Trek. We made it without any issues other than maybe some new pin stripes. Long sections of trail were only wide enough for 1 car or ATV to pass at a time.. luckily we never had to backup to let someone pass.
weather ended up being almost 10 degrees cooler than we expected. Woke up around 0730 and it wasnt much "warmer" than what the overnight low had been

Otherwise I might have considered buying an OBXT also. Brother in law has one, it is pretty nice.
