    Paging any Oklahoma FSJ'ers

    Well the wife and I just took a job with a construction company that does a lot of work for the U.S. Armed Forces. We will be moving every 12-24 months for a few years and our first assignment is Lawton, Oklahoma! We will be working on a project taking place at Ft. Sill. Looking to hook up with some other Jeepers down there to get to know the trails in the area. Anyone live close by?

    I'm up in tulsa at about 2.5 hours north east. there are a couple of locations for wheeling. Clayton over in southeast oklahoma (an no easy way to get there from lawton), and disney (grand lake) up in north eastern oklahoma about an hour from tulsa. you can head north and a bit west to little sahara for some sand fun.

    there are people that hit the river bottoms down in that area. I did hear of a new offroad park opening up west of lawton.

    what company are you working for? My arch firm does lots of DOD work at ft sill, altus afb, tinker afb, etc.

          Considering there are only a few people out in NW Oklahoma...you're doing pretty good! There are few on the east and south central!

                      Hey just seeing this as I am not around this board much anymore, but TORC 4x4 is out of Wichita Falls, TX, about 45 mins south of Lawton....they are a pretty good group, hit up Bridgeport and Clayton from what I know of....

                      Might be worth yalls interest.

                        I have seen your waggy on base!! It is sexy!


                        Sorry to say that my hot rodder blood got the best of me when we moved down here and I have since sold the Wagoneer to a fellow IFSJA board member to fund another project. I already regret selling that thing!!

                        Thanks for all the replies fellas! I will dive back into the FSJ world soon!

                              I am also in Lawton/ Ft.Sill area. I just bought a 1978 Cherokee 360/ T-18 a couple of months ago and I have been working on getting it road worthy, it has ISSUES from PO's knuckleheadness, but it is coming along. For my JEEP fix I hop in my CJ with my dog and ride around Ft.Sill.
