trailless?

Is there anyplace in the U.S. where you can go 4 wheelin' for any significant distance off roads without having to stay on trails?
Have you been to Silver Lake, that's the only place I know of near you.
Nice, sounds a lot like what I have in mind...how about death valley, is that totally regulated to the point of uselessness?There are many places here in SoCal deserts that you can go quite a ways and not touch pavement. Depending what part you're in depends on how much you need to stick to the trail (Wilderness Protection Act of 94). Myself and a few friends head out for 4 days a couple times a year to explore, usually put about 100-AMC 150 offroad miles on the Jeeps and most trips never see another sole
I have spent many vacations and Club Jeep trips in Death Valley and its surrounding area going all the way to the Sierra Nevada mountians, early spring and fall is the best time to go. Having four wheel drive is pretty much a must have plus a desire to spend a lot of time on foot. There are numerous web sites and forums that are devoted to this area. For many people who enjoy this area one lifetime is not enough time to see it all. I am sure there are many locations back East that are similar though, its a big world.
I think I'm a little confused. Are you looking for a place to 4 wheel where there are lots of established trails and two tracks or are you trying to find a place where you can drive where ever you want?
I'm not so sure we ever had all that much land to just ramble around on, at least not since the great prairie clipper days. In some ways that is still the same. If you go on horseback there are millions of acres to roam around on. In a vehicle the deep woods aren't open enough to drive around on, the prairie and the desert are far too fragile. I am no environmentalist so, I thought it was a bunch of nonsense until I moved to the desert southwest. Tire tracks disturb the desert crust which starts unwanted plants growing or out and out erosion channels. More than likely the scourge of the wild lands …. ATV’s …. have ruined any sympathy for 4 wheeling in remote areas.
