Default Oklahoma?

I'll be really surprised if I get an answer to this but I gotta ask. Has anyone ever ridden the Sans Bois Mountain area of Oklahoma? We've ridden the Kiamichi's that are south of there. I wondered if the San's Bois are as rocky and rough as the Kiamichi's.
We are wanting to plan a trip for possibly next month and this is one of the choices. I've looked into the Robbers Cave state park in the area and it looks nice from what I can find on the net (which isn't much) If anyone has any better information I'd love to hear about it.

Google Image Result for http://gallery.ih8mud.com/albums/2008-04-12_UnitedWheelIn/thumb_DSC_0723_(Large).JPG



I hope this link works Maureen. This is not Wilburton OK... This is Poteau which is about 40 miles EAST of Wilburton. It is a very popular 4x4 destination... The link I gave you is of people 4 wheelin' but it give you a very good idea of the area.

I've only been there once and Korrie got sick, I was only there a couple hours before heading home, however my brother has gone a few different times and has said that the trails there are among the toughest in the country because of the mud/grass/rock combo.

I'll see what else I can dig up for you...especially since these aren't horse trails!


You might try shooting Brandon a PM, I know he's a proud Okie! He may know of the area personally.
