If Old NC 105 is crowded, I strongly recommend checking out Maple Sally. It's right on the other side of the gorge, has some good campsites and other than the guys on the dual sports it is largely overlooked. I've been up there a few times and I've never seen anyone else camping there. It's a...

I have placed a few names on businesses in my short professional career thus far. Here is a sure fire way to get a solid name. Gather a few friends that are involved in the endeavor with you, build a nice little campfire with some of your campers nearby and then open a bottle of something good...

Heading up there after the meet & greet? I can probably do a day trip.

I got my dad a Ryobi for small trimming tasks and it is pretty good but that decision was based because the other Ryobi tools are pretty good and all use the same battery packs. They have a 12v charger that can be charged from the car as well. Whatever you get, just make sure you have some kind...

Alright Tom... you had double the cameras as these other guys and you were riding in the middle of the pack all day. Did you get any good footage?

That's awesome. I love the view from the rack and you had some good tunes there. Sorry about Berk... she's a little fatty and a predator of any snacks! She may be a LITTLE bit spoiled.

Musterground was open, we were running out of daylight and didn't get to check out Auger Hole.

I don't know if any of you browse Reddit... but there is a very popular page there called "Heep" which is dedicated to showing the horrible things some monsters do turning perfectly good Jeeps into atrocious mall crawlers and parking lot princesses.

Yeah, I talked to that guy. It was only a peg point.

That picture of the campground looks like it has a label bc of my spare carrier swung out like that.

Those are some sick shots. I’m not a photographer by any sense or definition of the word - but I’ll have to take some new night shots of the Appalachia Wander Wagon soon. I have the new iPhone 11 Pro Max with the 3 cameras on it. I don’t know how they work, but I’m told it takes pretty good...

Great trip, awesome trail, solid group. Thank you @Jeffrey Dill for putting in the leg-work on setting it up. After my attempts over the summer I discovered how quickly it becomes to get burnt out on putting these things together. It’d be good to have different people to plan the big group...

Damn Tom, you're always a full day early. I'm glad I bought the Heater Buddy when they were on sale. I'm leaving the office at 12:30 today. I have most of my gear stacked up to be loaded into the car and I need to hook up the boat. I should be there by mid-afternoon. Enough time for me to throw...

I use a variation of this. I seal one end of the toilet paper tube loosely and then I stuff it with cotton balls that I have saturated with vasoline. I stuff as many as I can into it and then rub a little more vasoline onto the tube itself and seal it in a ziplock bag. After it starts it will...

This Sasquatch was in Tennessee for the weekend, sorry ya couldn't find me. :tonguewink:

On my to-do list, but I do have the trailhead coordinates in a notebook. 36.069033, -84.661201

Happy trails.

Maple Sally is over there & is a pretty cool run w/ some really good camping along it. I marked the campsites along that route. It isn’t challenging really either, but it is nowhere near as crowded as Old NC 105 is. If you want a challenge, Brown Mountain OHV is about 3 or 4 miles down the road...

Old House Gap Road is BRUTAL. Here is my route mapping I did before. It was grueling and punishing. We had a hard time getting past a group going in the opposite direction and I was dialed into their CB channel. Maybe 3 miles after we got past them we heard that a Wrangler in their group had...

Nerds... get a room!
