    I haven't heard of any, but I very rarely ever go over that way.

    Havent heard of any problems.

    Most of the heavy rain amounts were to the southern mountain counties.I am near maggie valley and there are no issues here or in Waynesville

    Fished Big Snow Bird years ago,probably caught 30-40 trout that day.Very cool river with rocks the size of houses

    Nice set up.

    I mostly use 4lb test and the big trout i have caught came in fine,just had to be careful bringing them in.

    My buddy caught a 8lb rainbow and his line broke right after we netted him.There are some big trout out there.Davidson River has some huge trout too.If you fish the hatchery waters go on Friday morning.They stock it every Thursday night until around August

    Stock again. Tepui RTT Voodoo rack
    Whats up guys, Taking my lady on her 2nd ever camping trip in our RTT. We camped off of a FS road in Pisgah NF near cove creek the first time but I wanted to do something a little more civilized for her this time. has anyone parked their rig at Mt. Pisgah Campground? It not my style i'm more of a primitive camper but I want to get her hooked on camping through good experiences. Just wondered if it was a worth while place or if I should just cruise up and down FS roads again. Figured we would do frying pan tower and black balsam hikes while were out and about.

    Thanks for any input fellas/ladies

    Ended up going to Mt.Pisgah Campground. Not ideal but it was an overall good experience! Plus new shoes
    Falken 265/70/17 got about 3/4” from it. So far so good on these tires. Out the door from discount tire for $619 with 4 certificates.

    We went back into the PNF today and drove Headwater, FS475B up from the Hatchery.

    Then up the BRP, down 215 to Cold Spring Gap, FS4776. That intersects Wolf Mountain down to 1756 or Charley’s Creek Road.

    All these trail names are from the OFF-ROAD TRAIL GUIDE app. I like the way that works and wonder if any of you all have other apps to recommend.

    I’ve used that app and it doesn’t really tell me any trails. Unless I’ve got something messed up I’m the settings. Cool shots tho!

    Thanks! Settings wise, make sure you open up the filters to show everything including USFS Roads, which is what we have most of around here.

    I might be interested if we can get several guys to go
    I live less than 5 miles from the trail head but have never taken the trail as i am not sure what to expect.
    Never really done any trails like that before.

    Next Sunday (22nd) is looking good.
    I’ve been itching to go on a truck hike with some others, and push my stock a little more than on the FS roads.
