BlacksheepOffroad provides professional 4x4 driving instruction and training. Regular group courses are conducted from our Georgetown CA location, and fully outfitted multi-day trips are scheduled seasonally on California's famous Rubicon Trail.

Regular group classes are scheduled throughout the fall, winter, and spring months, October through April. Courses fill up fast, so book ahead! Class size is kept small for maximum effectiveness.

Private courses are available by appointment, year-round, 7-days a week, so that your course is tailored to your specific vehicle, skill level and interest.

Space is limited in a Jeep so we encourage our guests to pack light, fitting all of your personal gear in one sturdy duffle bag if at all possible. Here’s an idea of what should be packed:

  • Shorts and long pants (warm days, cool nights) 
  • T-shirts (or other comfortable, breathable shirts you don’t mind getting dirty)
  • Sweatshirt or fleece
  • Windbreaker or packable rain jacket
  • Sturdy shoes: hiking boots, Teva-style sport sandals
  • Hat and sunglasses
  • Sunscreen and bug spray (we will also have these available if you cannot carry them on your flight)
  • Tums, Advil, Imodium–basic things to help keep you comfortable
  • Any medication that you take regularly
  • Towel, flashlight, lighter/matches
  • Sense of humor and a smile!
