Do you offroad now, and will you be in the Bronco? I mostly go in the National Forest, with varying levels of difficulty. I only have around 11" of ground clearance, so I don't rock crawl.

There are lots of cool things to see up there - mountain vistas, lakes, trout streams, camp grounds, water falls, etc.

If you find a cool FS route that you like, let us know. The ones to Lake Conasauga have some cool mountain views. Johns Mountain just north of Rome is close, and a pretty easy drive - gravel the whole way. Real nice views from up there. There is a waterfall there that you can hike to also. The hike is tougher than the drive, but it's nice.

Anyways, just curious what you've found.

Wow! Beautiful photos!!! I haven't been over on that "side of town" yet, but will have to add that to the list of places to go. I haven't done any off-roading to date, but the more I am reading about it the more I wouldn't mind trying it out. I do need to start researching places to go to.

Johns Mountain doesn't require 4WD to go up to the top of it. Easily doable in a passenger car. I went up with my daughter, and when we got up I said "that's what Jeeps are for". Just then, a Honda minivan with about 9 people in it pulled up, and I had to confess I was in 2WD the whole time.

It's a long ways off before we have our first Bronco "Trek thru the Mountains", and you all may already know this, but I'd recommend getting an InReach device before you wander off into the mountains. No cell service in many places up there, so having a lifeline might be a good idea. You may find them on sale for black friday or something.

That's some good info right there!

I passed last black friday, and ended up buying a refurb unit from amazon. you can turn the service on or off, so you don't have to pay if there will be a spell when you're not using it. You can't call, but you can send SOS or text messages.
