A sad day for Nimblewill Gap/Old Bucktown FS46

Well...They have graded the trail... I am deeply saddened by this. FYI yes it's an old thread but read the most recent posts.

No more of this..

 

The wife and I were up there last week and they had only graded the first 30 yards or so. The mud pit was still there as well as most of the rocky parts. I will be going out tomorrow for some stress relief I may be in the area I will try to run it again and see if they went any further.

 

Oh good news...that's a relief.

We'll be out running tomorrow morning. Heading up to cherry log to rich mtn.

 

So we all went out there on Saturday...It's all flat now. No rocks, no mud holes, all the brush has been cut back. It's all dirt now...so sad they have bastardized yet another good trail.

The park ranger was driving by and his words were "you wouldn't believe how many people don't even want this open to the public" He said that was the compromise they had to come to.

 

Damn man. I really liked that trail too. I only got to enjoy it once with you guys. Are there any other good ones in that area?

 

There's sheepwallow close by. Actually gonna hit that up on saturday morning with some of the guys from expeditionportal.

 

So sort of a thread revival here, but what is the current state of this road?

 

Probably one of the oldest thread revivals yet on TW. years and 1 month.

 

At least I searched

 

I go camping up there a few times a year and don’t ever need 4x4. You can always find different places to try and creep through the woods a bit and climb some little hills that would require it but from one end to the other it’s just a rough dirt road.
