This year's Fall Crawl will be held at the Black Mountain Offroad Adventure Park Located in Harlan, KY.

October 24th - 25th, 2014

The Black Mountain Offroad Adventure Park is located in Harlan County, which can be found where US Highway 119 and US Highway 421 meet in southeastern Kentucky. The park is located approximately 8 miles east of the City of Harlan on the Black Mountain Range, which runs between US Highway 119 and Kentucky Highway 38.

Officially opened June 4, 2005, Black Mountain Recreational Park receives hundreds of riders each month from all over the eastern U.S. who come to take in the beauty and take on the challenge of the rugged Appalachian Mountains.

■Open all day, all year-round

■Over 6,000 Acres of Mountainous Terrain

■Elevations up to 3,300 feet high

■Over 200 Miles of Marked and Rated Trails
■Beginner, Intermediate and Extreme ATV Trails

■Levels 1 through 5 4x4 Trails and Obstacles

■Two Convenient Trail-heads

■Primitive campsites


New: Trail Use Fees will be in affect. (Go to http://www.blackmountainoffroad.com/#!fees/cxr5 for more information about the fees)

31-Day Permit: $30


Minutes from rental cabins, RV Hookups and other amenities

Black Mountain Recreational Park has been featured in dozens of magazines and publications including ATV Rider Magazine, ATV Illustrated Magazine, Honda Red Rider Magazine, 4x4 Builder Magazine and many more.

This year the Event HQ will be at Harlan County Campground (HCC) and RV Park -

http://www.harlancountycampground.com/ Please contact HCC directly for your reservations.

There are several hotels in the area as well. See here - http://www.harlancountytrails.com/area-hotels.php

Because of the new fee system, MEB will not be asking for donations for trail maintenance as we have in the past.

STOCKER FRIENDLY TRAILS, TOO! The Putney trailhead, and the Black Moutain Park, is located adjacent to state/national parklands with miles of very scenic gravel or dirt roads. If you have a stock or mildly modified vehicle this is an ideal place to come do some mild wheeling and scenic driving in the KY mountains.

We'll be staging the trail rides out of the Putney Trailhead / Harlan County Campground. Trail rides both days will line up about 8:00-8:30 a.m. and ready to leave at 9:00 a.m.. Come join us if you can! This is a low-key event where we try to get in as much wheeling in 2 days as we can!



Hope to see you there!

I heard Suzy from Duffs may be there so you might have a chance to have her deliver parts if you ask nice. Give them a call to double check.

Harlan is definitely my favorite park! Unfortunately, I can't make the event this year. It may be first of next year before I'm back on the trail. Look forward to seeing pics. Lions Den is on my list to try after a few upgrades.

Pretty sure we're gonna head out Thursday after work. Leave o'dark thirty Friday morning at the latest. From the looks of it we might have a small enough group to go into town to eat again %) Personally, having the kitchen, I'm open to cooking or putting something in the crock pot during the day and/ or having a cookout if everyone wants to bring something to throw on the grill. If Frampton is bringing his "camper" I don't doubt he might have some fixin's for a boil.

Good grief, another one dropped out! I am ready to cancel myself at this point!

The lack of turn out, our event coming up on the 7-8th and plenty to do before we head out for SEMA, I'm feeling pretty blah about it all.

If I do cancel, this would make it the first year I haven't gone to Harlan since I moved here!!

We've got 30+ Texas Broncos signed up for the Hidden Falls ride this weekend. If you cancel you could come west . . . just sayin' . . . ;);)
