Thought I would share some photos from yesterday's ride, as well as previous photos just to show where we ride at times. Little backstory, we found this church 12 miles back into Coppinger Cove. They had a service the evening before the day we got there. We believe there is a second entrance to the church that is all dirt and rocky road. That is a solid half day ride in and out at a good pace without a group. If you were to take a group ride through there that would take all day. Anyways The Cove consists of tens of thousands of acres and covers 3-4 counties. Most of the terrain is river rock so its very rocky and rough. If it has been raining heavy, you can forget about going as some areas will be impassable. From time to time we will camp there. I have attached some photos of random camp sites I have found while out there. While the terrain is pretty rough and rocky quite a bit is able to be traveled in 2wd as long as you have low tire pressure and good ground clearance. Other sections require 4wd and occasionally lockers. There's easy and hard lines around mostly anything. Along with everything Coppinger Cove has to offer it is greatly know for its water crossings, caves, and beautiful scenery. Enjoy!

Its an awesome community of trails.
I try getting out there twice a month. Just several weeks back we met up with a group of rzrs and rode all night till about 4am. There’s two types of ppl, those that love the cove and those that don’t. I’m excited to see how this outboard project changes the ride through there. Paul seem to think those shocks will eat those rocks up and make it a lot easier to get through quickly.
