Check out
http://www.adirondackjeeps.com/forums/index.php for info on one of my favorite local club. Ive been on a couple winter trail rides with them and they are a good group.
Couple things I noticed:
1) tow hooks are needed... the XJ (cherokee) has no tow points on it
2) Jeeps arent meant to be jumped... especially unibody jeeps
You want some real 4 wheeling you have to have a ton of gear... not mounted to the truck, but tools, of course recovery equipment.
Local "trails" I like... Old Florida Road in West Adams Massachusetts... Not for the jeeps in the video (see my avitar) but it is some of the best crawling for a moderate experience / moderate built truck.
there is a huge piece of property in east greenbush right off of 90 which has a ton of trails on it there is a guy Chris (has a black YJ) who is local on the adirondack jeeper forum who knows exactly how to get there
Up Rt 2 about 4 miles outside (east) of troy (before 278) you cross a stream and there are some powerlines off to your left. There is a tough entrance there, some pretty rough entry trails but once you are in there is a nice stream crossing, nice hill climb and the trek back. The holes are very deep (ala 4 to 5 feet) !!! consider yourself warned! Across the street from the stream the power lines cross rt 2 and go up a steep hill. Again some nice mudding along the lines, noone bothers you, but some of the holes are deep enough to eat fullsize trucks on 44s so be careful.
