Question Off road trails in Georgia, North of Atlanta?

Haven't utilized the 4WD capabilities of the Rover yet. It's a stock DI, so I'm not looking to climb rocks & mountains with it. Just a beginner's trail through the woods. Any suggestions?

First place I took mine was off Shoal Creek Road in Canton... waded across Puckett creek with ease, then trekked down the hill and back up, turned around, got stuck, worked my 4x4 magic and viola! Lol.. Fun little trail.

Google Maps

Not really. I just happen to be driving around and I spot them. And all of a sudden, curiosity gets the best of me

There are lots and lots of such trails... just when you go out there, be sure to stay away from the No Trespassing signs.

PM me your number, I'll call ya... maybe we could find some trails together... I just bought my Rover this past weekend, so I'm itching to ride around and rattle!

Beasley **** is great, just do not go when it rains. My club, The Georgia Bounty Runners, adopted the trail and have been keeping it up since 1995.

Beasley **** looks like fun, but it recommends "experienced off-road drivers." Which, make no mistake, I am not.

Come to a GBR meeting and then you can ride with us. Also, if it rains, DO NOT GO to Beasley. It is very dangerous.
