A Word About "A Dog's Jeep" Trails:
Unlike most Jeep websites, "A Dog's Jeep" trails section includes more than just 4-wheel drive trails. The trails included may have other intrinsic values such as:
|
Historical significance |
|
Access to remote hiking trails |
|
Remote camping on public lands |
Additionally, some of the trails featured here focus on the personal experience that can only be soaked up when you are in a remote area that may not have a readily available escape route. So, like the famous California trail, the Rubicon Trail as defined below:
Rubicon [rubkn]
n.
1. a stream in N Italy: in ancient times the boundary between Italy and Cisalpine Gaul.
By leading his army across it and marching on Rome in 49 b.c., Julius Caesar broke the law that a general might not lead an army out of the province to which he was posted and so committed himself to civil war with the senatorial party.
2. (sometimes not cap.) a point of no return.
3. a penalty in piquet by which the score of a player who fails to reach 100 points in six hands is added to his opponent's.
4. cross (or pass) the Rubicon. to commit oneself irrevocably to some course of action.
Some of the trails represent the notion that there are still places in this modern world that remain remote, beautiful with an appropriate amount of danger to stimulate one's senses sufficiently to invoke great joy, peace and serenity. (if that's what your into)
