Any class 6 roads near Wolfeboro?

The title pretty much sums it up.
Looking for any mudding trails that trucks can do on.

Please and thank you

Please don't assume that because it might appear to be a Class 6 that you can just use it and abuse it at your will. Check with the town and land owners and get their written permission before doing this. A word to the wise.

That's why I'm asking here if there is any good ones that a truck can use.

As a Jeeper, my suggestion is to join a club or offroading forum--most people here would rather not give up their secret spots or are wary of potential abusers. Good luck!

There are many of class VI roads that I know of. Most, if not all, with lots of history. Old farm remains. stone cellar holes, 3 rod wide roads with stone walls. The very very last thing that I would do is tell some city fellow with a mudder truck where one was.

What do you have for a rig?

You will find a number of Class VI roads on the GPS or on the detail NH Gazetteer. All roads reported to NAVTEC / Army Corps of Engineers are listed. The DOD and Home Security uses this info for emergencies.

The trouble is local road agents who change the roads to non road use and change ownership to the abutting land owners don't do a good job of reporting the changes to NAVTEC / ACE. These roads remain on the databases.

I ran into this problem when Belmont 'decommissioned' Durrell Mountain Road / Hoadley Road and change ownership to the abutting land owner. NAVTEC / ACE was not notified and even after the last update remains a 'passable Class VI' road. This road for years in the past was a popular offroad sight.

Belmont Boggie Busters took over Durrell Mountain Road and put up metal gates to deter off roaders. Hoadley Road was blocked by large boulders by the landowner to deter off roaders. Off roaders will circumvent the road blocks and use the roads nevertheless. The biggest problem was the town of Belmont never notify NAVTEC / ACE. I was told by a retired road engineer if there was an emergency and the roads are blocked the town / landowner could face heavy fines from the feds.

My family owns many acres of undeveloped land. The family look at the NAVTEC maps and notify ACE whenever we feel a road is impassable for emergency purposes and should be taken off the map. Within a few months that passage is gone and so have the off roaders.

Reminds me of the night in the middle of the winter. I set my GPS for the shortest route to Abenaki Ski Area for a hockey match. Somewhere in Tuftonboro on a road off 109, the GPS lead me to a snowmobile trail into the woods! Lucky I had the Jeep!

Wow - guy asks a simple question and just get ripped into. Why not just not respond rather than stereotype to get your point across. I know it's Monday, but no need to be so hasty. Mind you, I could careless about class IV roads nor do I know the original poster but just doesn't seem all that friendly here this morning.

You'd be surprised how many minivans and hondas I have stumbled across leading from Wboro to NDurham through the woods.

OP, my rig should be up and running next weekend. Hit me up with what you're running. If it has any balls you should look into joining DWE.

Not at all--take a look at any of the wheeling forums and you'll see the same treatment. They'll refuse to give people information on where to wheel because then the site could become a problem if 1. It's not legal in the first place, 2. Too many people show up, 3. The area gets destroyed. Wheelers protect their places because it's destructive not to.

Hence my suggestion to join a club, especially since the OP has no history here.

This. Absolutely this. I've since migrated to driving on private land, but I live within a mile of Class VI roads and I keep it all hush-hush.

edit: I should add the private land my friends and I wheel on are through clubs, family members, and whatnot; all with permission. My friend did a trail once and it forked into two paths; neither were marked. He went one way and landed at a gate with a NO TRESPASSING sign on it. Went to turn around and the land owner held him at gunpoint until police arrived. Always, always make sure before one tire hits the land that you either have permission or the land is public. And whether it be public or private, treat the land as though it is your own.

Agreed - we see the same thing with snowmobiling and everyone wants to know the "secret" spots and how to get there, specifically off-trail riding.

Exactly, my family owns one of these roads, about a mile long, which is basically our driveway now (dead end). Rather than assuming it is yours to use, it is a good idea to research your intent before finding irate land owners chasing you back down the road

I think they paved all the class VI roads up here.

[lav133raven]

I just was wondering.... Lol...
