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,

Coming Soon: The Cohuttas and West

Last weekend marked the final Georgia Overland trail scouting trip for the East-West route across North Georgia.  As I anticipated, the off-pavement opportunities are reduced west of the Cohuttas and I am still debating whether to establish the 'end' of the route along the west of the Cohutta and Big Frog Wilderness Loop or to continue the route across a fairly lengthy section of pavement (Eton, Georgia to Johns Mountain WMA) so that I may include dirt and gravel roads along Taylor Ridge.  Over the coming month I will review and format the data captured in this final trip and begin to assemble the complete East-West route in the Fall.  Stay tuned!
