- 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!

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 🤙
i live west of rochester and have been itching to take my truck somewhere like this. guess i know what ill be doing soon
Aww man I'm bummed because you drove past my house on the way! I live about 5 minutes from that McDonald's in Ovid!
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!
Yep! 😅
Great overview of the National Forest, Watkins Glen, & FingerLakes NY forest trails! Jeep on...😊
Thanks!
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.
Ooooooo that’s a good idea.
I was out there a few weeks ago and hit chambers road and the fire tower. Good times out there. Definitely going to camp at that fire tower this summer.
I’ll have to get back out there with the fam to see it sometime too
@@DarksideOffRoad I’ll be joining your patron soon so I can go on some trips with you guys. Getting 35’s on my Mojave this week.
@@EverythingOutdoorsAndJeeps aw man thanks 🙏
Love Watkins Glenn state park, look like you had some fun! chamber road looks like fun. :) man I wish I could fit 37's. LOL
It's amazing that those trails are tucked between the lakes out there. One of those holes looked pretty wild.
For real. It’s a neat little area. The state Forest mud / water pits were def the highlight though lol
Wishing we had never left and missed out on this part
YOu're close enough you can get back there anytime! Do it 😄
@@DarksideOffRoad absolutely!
Good stuff as always sir 😊
Thanks Justin! 🙏
So weird not have real snow in this place this time of year
Does rain ever make for a not-fun day off road?
😁
True. Not as much for camp tho 😅
Vader 🤦♂️🤡🥴
