Used to ride at Brock Creek on 3-wheelers back in the lates 80s & early 90s. Before we had any maps, just using our lousy sense of direction 😂 Morrilton has a restaurant called Yesterday's that's pretty good. I wouldnt say they uave the best pizza I've ever had but it is unique.
So glad it helps. I know it can be confusing, thats why we made the video. We are constantly getting questions about all of the different trail systems. Remember some of the information are just us sharing our opinions. For instance if your into tent camping, you can tent camp at Macks Pines, Moccasin Gap, Brock Creek, Mt. Magazine. Really any of the trail systems have suitable tent camping locations. Moccasin Gap wins in that category as well in my opinion because of the location of the campground. Any other questions you have, dont hesitate to ask.
Yup getting lost is part of the fun! Yeah, we done the wolf pen back in 2006. Even back then it was getting way too commercial like. Yes, agree about the Mill Creek, stay out of the trail system. Get to the outskirts. We have got to make it to Brock Creek one of these days. Yep I would agree with your rating of the trails. Nice job putting the video together.
Awesome video guys. We’ve been riding ATVs at Hatfield Mcoys and Tennessee for the past several years and wanted to try something different. This video helped us decide on where to go next year.
Great insightful video especially for those of us living outside of Arkansas. We went to Moccasin Gap for the first time last month and it lived up to the hype! We stayed VRBO at the intersection of Hwy 7, 16, & 123. The cabin is around 12 miles north of the area where you all park for Moccasin Gap. Rode the trail noted in your Epic Trail video. Had a blast with how sketchy the trail was. Thanks again for all of your help with Gaia. It was a lifesaver out there. Being from around the New Orleans area we don't get to climb hills much so riding in Arkansas is worth the trip. Going back last week of September. Definitely need to meet up and ride together. I am starting to work with the GoPro so maybe we will have some videos to share with you of our next ride. Only made a few short videos of our first ride there and the videos weren't too good. We ride ATV's but I do own a SXS (don't hold it against me LOL). Also, is Josh always that quiet? Might be why he's single.......
Really glad you guys had a good time! Good information on the VRBO as well. Glad you were able to find that epic trail! It's such a good one. Man yeah Gaia helps tremendously. It's so accurate too. Good to hear videos are coming! I'm interested to see what you film. Also glad to know at least SOME of you guys are on ATVs lol! We don't mind SXS guys. As long as they pull over when we are behind them 🤣. As for Josh, he's camera shy. Badly. He claims he was tired that day, but we all know better. It's all good, a lot of folks are camera shy. He talks a lot off camera. He is still single though. Just a lonely trucker 🤣
Only a few hotels though, and not great. Many more options in Russellville. We don't typically ride and drink on the trails, so being a dry county doesn't bother us. We grab a beer at chilli's in Russellville after a day of riding. Not an issue.
Almost sank my 300ex at buckhorn crossing the river coming back from the east side. lol the trails on east side are even rougher than the trails on the west. Amazing place
Rode there yesterday every trail I rode in the forest is not on any map, rode for 4 hours only crossed or rode 100 yard to next one never rode same trail twice, But I have lived here for over 20 years and took lots of exploring to hook them all up !!!
Now that's cool man! I bet that's a great time. When you said "rode there yesterday" where specifically did you ride? We covered multiple trail systems in this video. I've lived here my entire life. Born & raised.
Started at the end of 341 by 14 just pasted rand road on the left and u can make it all the way to McGowan road (cr74) u will pop out a couple times on 341 but just a hundred yards pop back in you can miss some of the trails they don't look like much and they will go to a food plot and u think your done but u drive around it and look closely you can sneak out the back and pop out on barkshed and work your way through a few hollers and make it to merril ridge . I was like you drove so many trails just to Dead end especially if you follow there map !!!!
@@robertwyble5407 Dude I love that!!!! Those are the types of trail systems we really enjoy.That is awesome, thanks for sharing. Im going to look some of this up on my mapping.
Don't like to sound disrespectful but u can tell we're the side by side's stop the trails that cut through around all the gates are narrow 50 inch not as rutted up and zero trash !!!!
@@robertwyble5407 We have noticed the same thing. I will say this and I am confident you have already thought of it, not all SXS riders abuse the trails. And not all ATV riders respect them, unfortunately. Another thing to think of, now adays there are WAY more SXS riders than ATV riders, at least in our area. More traffic = better chance to see abuse. All of that said, no question, the days of finding a true ATV only 50" max width trail are few and far between. And that is so unfortunate. Our favorite trails are the ones we can barely fit.
Thanks for the video. I have to say that I’ve ridden Mena several times on an 850 sportsman. I love those trails. I like to ride fast and hit woods. Mena is really good for that. A lot of higher speed climbs just a hoot to fly around. Not so much scenery. One climb to a nice overlook. Really not a lot of flat gravel driving. They have shut down some trail over the years. But all in all a fun place to ride.
We have a close friend that rents cabins there. He tells me everyone from Louisiana and Texas come up and ride and just love it. But he also told me it's mostly gravel roads. Very few trails. We have yet to see any videos of legitimate trails from that area. We love fast trails like what you're referring to, but we also like a challenge. Thanks for checking out the video man.
I’m a huge fan of Mack’s Pines. Been there a bunch. Greg is a hoot. Thinking about Buckhorn now. I ride a RZR XP 1000 now. I gotta say as a fellow rider don’t skip Mena. There are definitely a days worth of trails there. There may not be a lot of really technical big boulder climbs but there are definitely fast rocky climbs that wind through hilly trails. The worst part is they have started to shut some trails down. The woops there are the best I’ve ever ridden. If you catch it with no one else on the trail you can fly and get all kinds of air fro the jumps.
I need to hit you up wit one more thing because it bit me once. You have to make sure the Mena trail system is ope when you go or it is mainly flat gravel roads. They close down for hunting for sure. But the trails there are very similar to a lot of what’s in moccasin gap.
@@miillersoffroad if you guys ever want another guy on a 4 wheeler this summer or fall, I’d love to meet you guys and tag along on a good ride! I promise I am just a regular guy lol
Ok as for the wolf pen talk I grew up near there but I've yet to ride wolf pen. I do know just to the South of there is some good rides that aren't gravel roads. Check that Brushy Creek area.
We're just not interested in going that far south when we see the pictures and videos from others. I'm sure there are some trails there, but we would literally be passing up all of the best trails in the state to get to wolfpen or anything around that area.
I know it’s not in Arkansas and I’m not sure if you guys have been there yet or not, but I live close to Jonesboro, Arkansas and we go to Cloud 9 all of the time. We love it up there and it’s not too far of a drive.
I know about Cloud 9. Too expensive for my taste, and not enough trails. All the trails we ride are basically free and almost unlimited in quantity. Were north of Jonesboro an hour. We are about three and a half hours from mack's pines, our favorite place to ride.
We live in Morrilton and have lease land between upper and lower Brock Creek. Next time you are in the area, I would love to show you some amazing overlooks and caves. Morrilton has several good restaurants and bars. Besides all the Mexican restaurants, Yesterday's bar and grill off 95 is amazing. We have 4 hotels in town, 2 on 95, but the other 2 in town are of better quality. We also have Petit Jean Mountain just to our south off Hwy 9. They have cabins and Mather Lodge (restaurant and hotel), which is on the bluffs. Not fourwheeler friendly, but amazing views and hiking trails. It would be a mid point between Perry County, which has miles and miles of great riding trails. Love yalls videos... Hope to see you on the trails!
Man thanks for all of that great information! Hopefully others that watch the video will be able to read the comments and get some help here too. Maybe one of these days we will see you on the trails for sure! Would love to see some of these overlooks and caves. Thanks for checking out our videos man! Really appreciate it. We love doing it.
@@erick1076 man your in a great location. Brock Creek is by far you're closest. It's just north of Jerusalem which is just north of morrilton. The trails are probably 30 minutes north of Morrilton.
@@miillersoffroad awsome. The wife and i r trying to pick some to go ride on Christmas. Looks like its either brock creek or hot springs. Would go to carters but we hear its basically all mud pits and we prefer trails or mowing through everything to make our own.
Very helpful.. my wife and I are buying some land outside of Ozone.. any recommendations for that area? We are new to ATV’sbut I do a lot of riding on a BMW GSA all over..
looking for trails for beginners to intermediate nearby…. We will be midweek riders to dodge any crowds.. basically we are totally new to the area.. moving from Fort Worth…
@@rickmcconathy1278 if your moving close to Ozone, your going to be literally right in the middle of some of the best trails. Hard for me to point out one specific trail or series of trails that are beginner level because there might be one section that's a bit hairy. My suggestion is to just start riding. I would head east from ozone first. That will take you towards Moccasin Gap, better trails that direction in my opinion, more overlooks and waterfalls. Hope that helps!
Just stumbled across yall here on UA-cam. Thank yall so much for this video. Much needed. All we have ridden is WolfPen. ATVs are #1! I am from southwest La. We will be Macks Pines for sure. Thanx Again
@@patricklangley7516 man thanks for checking out the video for sure! So glad it helps. Yeah wolfpen just isn't our style man. The best riding is around the macks area no doubt about it. So awesome you guys are on atvs as well! I love it
Didn't expect to stumble onto former classmates channel. You mentioned being in a few groups, neark riders is a group I made specifically for the area if you wanted to join we'd be glad to have you
If riding Brock Creek you can stay in Clinton. 2 motels in Clinton both clean and friendly staff. Maybe 25 minutes to Brock Creek
Good point. Clinton is a cool town too. Out of the way for most folks though if they are already traveling on the interestate.
Used to ride at Brock Creek on 3-wheelers back in the lates 80s & early 90s. Before we had any maps, just using our lousy sense of direction 😂

Man that's awesome! Very cool. We used to ride Honda big reds! Loved them.
@@miillersoffroad
Yep....Hondas for us. 110, Big Red, 350X
We like speed!!!!!
Man we do too!
Thank you, thank you and thank you. Finally somebody posted a video with maps to show exactly where these places are and where to stay.

Can you rent 4wheelers in the area of Mack’s Punes/moccasin gap?
Where is the natural bridge around mack's you guys mentioned. I haven't found that yet.
Yup getting lost is part of the fun!
Yeah, we done the wolf pen back in 2006. Even back then it was getting way too commercial like.
Yes, agree about the Mill Creek, stay out of the trail system. Get to the outskirts.

There are good restaurants in Morrilton they are just not chain restaurants. Morrilton is in a wet county where Conway and Russellville are dry.
Only a few hotels though, and not great. Many more options in Russellville. We don't typically ride and drink on the trails, so being a dry county doesn't bother us. We grab a beer at chilli's in Russellville after a day of riding. Not an issue.
@@miillersoffroad Gotcha. Only one newer motel, the others are old.

Can you please confirm SxS's are allowed and fit on Moccasin Gap trails. Thank you!
Perfect! I have been needing a where to Video and really appreciate it. Thank you!
