TIME TO GET OFF THE HIGHWAY. DAY ONE.
When you need to get away and relax, then a Jeep is a good way to get to a place with less craziness and more nature. The Georgia Traverse trails offer over 390 miles of track, trails, roads, and river crossings. Join us as we take a three day trip in the North Georgia mountains over the river and through the woods. We downloaded the maps to GaiaGPS and set off to see just how awesome mountain trails in the East can be. They did not fail. Tight turning service roads running to elevations of over 3,700 feet give you ample opportunities to drive on the edge of a drop off. But the views are astounding and rewarding.
THINGS TO KNOW:
Overall the trails are a 1-2 on a scale of 10. Most are maintained forest roads.
We used 4 wheel drive - just to get better traction on the higher trails.
There are rocks that are in the road, watch your differential.
Bring a saw or ax; We needed it to get past a fallen tree.
Bring plenty of water and stuff to eat. It’s remote at times.
You won’t have cell phone signal most of the time.
Have a full tank of gas.
Have a first aid kit.
Let people know where you are going.
STAY ON THE TRAILS!
Check with the proper agencies before camping.
