Why Georgia Overland?

In a word, Connectivity. I wish to find all open and legal, unpaved roads in Georgia. The goal is to create a network of dirt, gravel or unimproved roads and trails across Georgia. My focus is on North Georgia, though the project is open to any roads in the state that meet the criteria, and will likely include portions of NW South Carolina, SW North Carolina, SE Tennessee and NE Alabama. If you have a favorite legal trail, track or route you wish to share, and you have no reservations offering it up freely to the world, send an email my way.

Enjoy the journey,

David

Reader Submission: Todd S. and his Toyota 4Runner

I recently heard from GeorgiaOverland reader, Todd S.  He included a great picture of his Toyota 4Runner in the Cohuttas, heading up to Lake Conasauga.  This really is a beautiful area in North Georgia. 

Thanks for the email, Todd!

Reader Submission: Jim Timmerman Natural Resources Area at Jocassee Gorges

I recently had an email exchange with Randall Warren regarding an area I have yet to visit, the Jim Timmerman NRA.  He enjoys the backroads of North and South Carolina in his Jeep Rubicon and offered to share some information with Georgia Overland.  Below are slightly edited excerpts from our conversation. 

Since I have neither verified the accuracy of the descriptions nor checked for legal vehicle travel, I feel obligated to state the obvious...Use the following information at your own risk.

About the Jim Timmerman Natural Resources Area:

...Some info on the Jim Timmerman NRA in Jocassee Gorges. Mostly in South Carolina, next to North Carolina. Horsepasture Road is 20 miles long, one way. It has two entrances and great views of Lake Jocassee.
