Nope.  all private property.  Have to get the owners permission.

Got an update regarding the Pontiac Field. I noticed that the gate was shut with a mound of dirt blocking the fence and they also blocked off the curb entrance on telegraph. Apparently they are developing it and I was talking to "Urbanmudneck" last sunday and he said that anyone caught in there will be prosecuted etc,by the owner as they appear to be finally developing the land. Drivng by it is kinda sad. :(

Is there anything legal around the lansing area or does anyone have property that they want to get together and play on? just got a new truck and need to test it out.

Here in New Hampshire we have what is called "Class 6 Roads". These are LEGAL roads that are not maintained by the State or Town but are open to public use. Travel on Class 6 Roads is STRICTLY a "Tread Lightly" means of four wheeling. Excessive throttle use or driving off the trail can and has lead to road closures. There are Class 6 Roads all over the State and usually at least 1 in every town. Most Class 6 Roads I have been on usually lead out to Power line Trails owned by the Public Service of New Hampshire. These trails are usually open to the public unless they cross private land. Power line trails are AWESOME! They provide a great mix of hills, rocks/ ledges, and deep mud/ swamps. Some of these trails go quite far out into the wilderness and can go from relatively easy to very extreme quickly so traveling on any Power Line Trails alone is NOT a good idea. Some people would argue with me and say " Power Line Trails are not legal places to wheel." but in the 15+ years I have been behind the wheel of off road vehicles we have wheeled on Power Line trails and never had any issues. I have met and talked to New Hampshire Fish and Game Department out on Power Line Trails, I have met and pulled out the local Police Department out on Power Line Trails. I have even come upon P.S.N.H. workers out there and they always smile and give a friendly wave. The only time it is an issue wheeling on a Power Line Trail is when the land has been purchased by a private owner and the trails have been posted with signs stating "Wheeled Vehicles Prohibited". If you see one of these signs you'd best turn around.
If your gonna go out, go all out. If your gonna go down, go down in flames!

It is cool!

The Power Line Trail that is located off of Osgood Rd. (Class 6 Road) here in Milford goes all the way to West Buxton, Vermont! (2/3 of the way across the State) You'd better have something REALLY serious to be able to make it but it goes. The usual ride I do goes through 3 Towns and goes to a place called Fletcher's Granite. The total round trip takes about 4 1/2 hours if you don't stop along the way. There are "side obstacles" along the way such as "The Steps" a small abandoned granite quarry that has a series of granite steps that range from 6" tall to 3' tall and they drop you down about 60' in elevation into a series of dump piles that have broken pieces of granite ranging from small rocks to 8'-15' slabs. This area contains the "Sheet Metal Trail" appropriately named because you risk your body panels (and drivetrain) attempting this trail. It isn't that long but it cannot even be attempted without a minimum of 35's and a locker at both ends. There also are several mud bog area's along the way including the "Lagoon", the "X Bog", the "Pole Hole", "Josh's Mud Hole" (VERY DEEP!) and "Mile Slip" There are also various swamps and water crossings along the way. Another thing that can be found out there are hills, lots of them! Some are not that bad and others are wicked hard. The hills are named after numbers from east to west, Hill 10 is one of the hardest. It is very steep and has a ledge section towards the top. Hill 14 and Hill 15 are all little round rocks about 6"- 10" in diameter and they are very hard to get traction on. 

This is just a very brief summary of one of the more than 100 Power Line Trails that cris-cross this State!
If your gonna go out, go all out. If your gonna go down, go down in flames!
