Anybody want to check out Tatum Lead and/or Rocky Flats on Saturday?

Promises to be plenty muddy.

I have never done either and figured I better do it now before we end up paying $4/gal for gas this summer. :lol:

Anybody done these have anything to say about them?

Speak for yourself... I'm already paying that.... :) Where are those trails? My wife is due in 2 weeks and we need some "shake the baby out" locations that are not TOO difficult such as to strand a couple while one of them is in labor. I have decent tires currently, but no lift and only a front skid plate.

Yeah, but you aren't getting 15MPG are you? :lol:

Tatum Lead OHV:
http://www.fs.fed.us/conf/rec/ohv/rock-creek.shtml

Rocky Flats OHV:
http://www.fs.fed.us/conf/rec/ohv/rocky-flats.shtml

I did some more checking around online this afternoon and found that most folks thought that Tatum Lead was a glorified Forest Service (FS) dirt road and that the listing online for Rocky Flats may be wrong -- apparently it is posted for ATV use not 4x4. :roll:

If this is true, this would mean that Beasley Knob and Tatum Lead are the only USFS 4x4 OHV allowed areas left in Georgia. Apparently a few years ago (as late as 2005) you were still able to run the Rich Mountain ORV and Amicalola/Anderson Creek ORV areas but these have been closed. ::sigh::

The motor vehicle use maps for all the other GA FS Roads can be found here:

Yes, I have been busy all winter trying to locate resources as close as possible to me to ride.
:D
