hey welcome to the island :) its a wonderful place, full of hardcore trails that smash up vehicles haha! Nah for real the island might be a very different environment than what you might be used to, especially in terms of wheelin. Lots of forest service roads which are definitely wide and easy-ish to do, and you can access alot just by going on those! when trails get more technical though, it gets pretty intense. Most guys here have older rigs, 4runners and jeeps and old toyota pickups, that seems to be the "main" culture of vehicles to go 4x4 ing on the island. Ive personally got a 2010 tacoma double cab long bed, and honestly ive been in some stuff that if you care about your paint, you shouldnt go. But! that being said there are alot of awesome trails to explore, secret camping spots to discover and just exploring the great outdoors :)

You could start off by picking up a copy of the Backroads mapbook, its an excellent guide thats sold in most book stores, and it has most of the main trails and alot of smaller ones too! Its a great guide overall. You will definitely find trails that are suited to what you like to do and what are comfortable with. I would say one of the best things to do is just get out and explore, pick a spot and go check it out. There are organized trail runs here once in awhile, just keep in eye out for them :) Seeing as you have a newer vehicle and probably care about it ( as I do with mine) youll want to check with the guys organizing whatever trail run is going on, see if you can follow them, they will let you know! All depends on where they are going!

Anyways, all this to say, welcome :)

Yea thanks for the reply, I ended up.coming home and looking it up, and my buddy went today and made it :) you can go by under powerlines, but that's the big loop I think, fastest way is past powerlines, like you said!
