8:30 am to 9:15 am Group Meetup, short social, driver meeting and fuel top off at Ingles in West Union SC. Enter the Georgia Traverse at Burrells Ford Campground Mountain Rest SC and continue to Dillard Georgia via a couple of short dips up into NC. Will take a lunch break in Dillard and those who want can depart the Rally and do their own thing. The Rally will continue departing Dillard on Betty Creek Rd. to Patterson Gap. There is interest in this trip from some 2 wheel drive vehicles so for those rigs they will continue on Patterson to Persimmon Rd. 4 wheel drive rigs will take the crossover trail off Patterson to Coleman River and down to Persimmon Rd. where the group will reform heading up Tallulah River Road to Charlie's Creek. For those vehicles who don't want to ford Tallulah River, we'll continue north on Tallulah River Rd. and cross the bridge onto Charlie's Creek Rd. Following the trail west, we'll hit Upper Hightower Rd. and follow out to US 76 where the Rally officially ends sometime around the 3 pm to 4 pm hour. US 76 east will take you to Clayton Ga. and US 441 for those heading east, north or south and US 76 west takes you to Hiawassee Ga. to Blairsville and all points south and west or northwest. For those who would like to continue the Traverse you can or for those wanting to camp, this gives you time to locate a spot with numerous options in the area.
