i'm headed to boston for a week at the end of april, and am looking for some trails within a few hours to run that would nice for day trips. my parents will be with me who enjoy the sights and experiences getting off the beaten path provides, but they're not fans of just trail riding for the sake of the challenges. we're also planning to ride into canada (not sure exactly where yet) and spend at least one night, maybe two. so, anything over that way would be of interest as well and might determine which route we take and/or the destination.

the truck is a stock ford excursion on 33's. it's my DD/tow rig so i can't just fully get it, but i'm not opposed to a scrape and bang here and there. i can throw a locker in the front and take a multi mount winch with me if anyone thinks either would help a lot.

so... thoughts? suggestions? flaming?:flipoff2:
