Suburban Offroading with AWD
Posted by: Subaru ()
Date: March 08, 2018 07:23PM

I am a suburbanite dying to do light offroading with my granola mobile aka Subaru Outback. I'm seriously wanting to drive it on grass and slight ascents and descents. I was tempted to sneak on to the local school's grass field.

Please help me scratch this itch. Oh and too much gravel is a nono..

Find a public golf course and go bowling for golfers. Burke Lake Park course at last daylight.

I would like to know a place where I won't be breaking any laws. There has to be a decent grassy dirt area.

Take a run on the many power line/gas line right of ways. It's illegal, but the one time we were caught the cop just said not to do it again and sent us on our way. There are some good ones out their that are hilly and have small stream crossings.

Is that considered Braddock park? I too would love to test my offroad capabilities outside of snow and rain.
