It's quite overgrown from the last time I was there. I'd only be running my LJ or XJ on that. :like:

Is the salt springs campground the closest one to the trail? Also the badge of honor, do you get it there after completing it on the app or is it mailed to your address?

I can't answer your first question but as to the second one, you request the badge after you've checked in, and they mail it to your house.

I'll be hitting Ocala in a couple of weeks, not looking forward to the pinstriping but it looks like one of the easier trails that I've done.

Thanks. Yeah thinking of camping there as it's conveniently in the same place as the trail. This does seem like the easiest trail to do for me as I've got a stock gladiator with no modifications. I'll probably have to stay out of the mud though.

Yes, Salt Spring Campground will be the closest one to the trail that will have electric and hook-ups.

The summer rain is here in Central Florida and I would expect the trail to have a good amount of water from now till October. Good luck.

If you're afraid of pin striping, you could always put PPF on the sides of the vehicle. It's expensive, but it's better than buying a different vehicle to run trails if that's your thing.

It's stopped pin striping on my vehicle on at least one trail where another Gladiator got pin striped to hell running the same lines as me. I have literally not even a mark.

Sorry, been off a while doing house remodel…

yes, Salt springs is a great campground! Like others have said, check onto the trail in the app, then request the badge through the app… it gets mailed a couple weeks later.
