Common sense isn't.
There are at least three routes to the windmill wind power plant site. The conditions have varied a lot with weather and time. After road improvements for bringing in more windmills, the roads are improved, but after neglect for a while, the roads can be treacherous. After rain or snow, the roads can be muddy and slippery. You've been warned. Be very careful. I'd generally suggest taking a truck, but you might be able to get away with an average road car, depending on conditions and tolerance for abuse such as dragging bottom and slipping and sliding (or getting stuck). I'd suggest a 4-wheel truck to be safe, but check for yourself.
Thanks to the Windrock ATV Club (archive, 2004), however, I now know a third route, which only goes part way to the windmills before it joins the "shorter" route. The third route passes close by several active gas wells.
One great improvement by the Windrock ATV Club (and/or Coal Creek Mining Company) is the signs marking roads and trails. Although not every intersection was marked, most were. Using
Tommy Rhea's map (archive, 2004) and the road signs made it much easier to find the way.

| I am particularly interested in the indications that the people seem to understand and approve the necessity of pursuing the course that will prevent a further effort on the part of the German peoples to continue the struggle for world domination, even though they are thoroughly beaten in this war. |
| ~ Franklin D. Roosevelt (18821945), U.S. president. Letter, October 2, 1942, to George H. Gallup. The Roosevelt Letters, vol. 3, pp. 438-439, ed. Elliott Roosevelt, George G. Harrup & Co., Ltd. (1952). Gallup had sent the results of a recent Gallup Poll to the President, which prompted his comments about public opinion concerning a possibly resurgent Germany. FDR was constantly concerned over public opinion and read and sometimes commissioned surveys to get public responses on important issues. He did this regularly with the Princeton University polling people headed by Hadley Cantril. This letter set forth opinions about Germany which would occupy the attention of the Big Three at Yalta. FDRs antagonism and suspicion of Germany stems from early visits there and from the time he spent in school in Germany, where in the 19th century he saw manifestations of expansionism and racial superiority as the school curriculum bred super-nationalism and contempt for other nationalities. ~ |
