I won't be able to make it, but I wasn't planning on attending the next meet up anyway since I'm taking an unrelated trip in December I need to save time/money for.
I had a great time with you guys. Here are some pictures that I took:
I'll post some video later this week (with all the rigs driving by and of the tree clearing operations), but I already posted the one of my Mercedes going over one of the more technical parts of the trail on my Instagram. I...
I'll be sleeping in the back of the vehicle, so I'll be good with staying warm. But I will need to go back home after leaving work to get my forgotten boots.
Looks like it will get into the low 30's this weekend, and a high of about 60 on Saturday.
The majority of the road near the parkway wasn't bad. Towards the south side is where there was more harsh ground, but it wasn't so bad that my friend's 2wd Tacoma couldn't make it up. If I lived closer I'd probably go a lot more often, there are a lot of paths there that I'd like to explore.
Just reserved site 9!
I was at Old NC-105 the last few days showing it to some friends of mine. The road is a lot more washed out going up than it was when we went a few months ago.
I watched a couple videos of the Georgia Traverse. Looks like its a good mix between easy pavement and technical parts. It'd be nice if we could spend a few days exploring part of it since there seems to be so much there.
I was already on the road when you sent this! I was going to look up what HAM repeaters were in the area that morning, but didn't get a chance to before leaving work.
I'll be posting some trip pictures later on!
I need to get a GMRS radio/licence after this trip.
I probably should have asked this before; about how far down Craig Creek Rd is the camping spot we're hoping to grab? A couple miles or is it really close to Brown Mountain Beach Rd?
"35.949177, -81.756365 and turn west onto Craig Creek Road" is where Trey @Sasquatch SC said the ideal camping area is at. I think that's also where we're going to be camping Saturday night as well?
