A lot of the camp sites in N. GA. are dispersed, first come first served, and trust me the campsites have been packed since the Covid thing. Been a while since we've had small ones but that may be tough with a little one. But then again you guys may want that adventure. You could consider making...

Just my opinion mind you but the section from around Blue Ridge to the Pine Mountain area is the prettiest. If you wanted to do the whole thing you can't go wrong with that either, especially if you're running up to past Charlotte.

David- I live near the Dawson county line. Let me know if you need some real time info. I've been running trails and camping N. Ga for 20 years.

This is a big subject, you can go really expensive or take the other road. Personally, I put Rancho RS5000Xs on my 02 Jeep TJ and it did make a world of difference, especially to Mama.

Agreed. Amicalola pic, 15 min from the house.

Yes, there is one in particular we go to, Lindsay Ford. It's dispersed but only about 5 sights. Last time we were there it was nasty, ppl forgot to dig holes if you know what I mean. We cleaned it but I think it's hit or miss on the shape it's in. Look at forrest road 58 and 28 around...

Live near the Appalachian Trail in North Georgia. My home water is the Amicalola river in Dawson County. There is a ton of fishable water in this area. Most of my overlanding trips revolve around fishing. Up here we mostly find stocked rainbows but my favorite is to find native browns blue...

Dome tent with mattresses. Works great for us. RTT didn't do well with us. Climbing down the ladder in the middle of the night to answer nature's call didn't sit too well with Mama.

North Georgia baby!

I just throw in a couple of those frozen plastic freezer packs the night before heading off. Big difference in how long the ice will keep.

In N Ga now some of the WMA roads are closed for “maintenance “. It’s not easy to figure out which ones are open. The national parks are all open for the most part. There are a few reservation options , probably the best is Lake Dockery. Only 6 spots but very remote. I can send specifics it you...

I live in the foothills of the N Ga mountains, I'm all over the trails between here and NC. I guess it depends on what you want to have access to while on the road. I primarily roam around the WMAs and Nat parks so I tend to stay fairly remote. There are challenges with that because you really...

I carry two 28L lifetime coolers and they are awesome. Pre-cool them before adding ice and they'll keep ice for longer than you'd expect.

It is personal choice of what you plan to do with your TJ. I've had my Sport for 19 years and have put on and taken off more crap than I can remember. Early on it was more about cool than capability. Now my TJ runs a 1" lift, down from 3", thinner tires, and a much beefier suspension. Perfect...

I put a 3” lift with wide tires on my TJ and absolutely hated it. Killed my gas mileage , speed, and was pretty much useless for the typical trails in N Georgia. Looked great, but not practical. Went down to a 1” lift, beefed up suspension components, thinner tires, and it’s perfect for what I...

Couldn't agree more. Didn't take my TJ completely back to stock, but wasted a lot of $$ on crap I didn't need for the trails I run.

Happy to be here. Been off roading (overlanding) for a good while. I live in the foot hills of the N Ga mountains about 10 minutes from the Appalachian trail head. Have had my 02 TJ since it was a baby. Have put on and taken off more mods/set ups than I can remember over the years but right now...
