Trey Mtn. has some good ones, I can post the road you get to it and describe how to get to the campsites. It's easy you just drive down the road until you see a sign that says "rough road ahead" it's not bad till about halfway up that but campsite are a .5 mile or so down the road.

The road is Old Chimney Mtn. Road

 

This is it right?

For this route, take GA 356 east from Robertstown (1 mile north of Helen) for 5 miles. Turn left at Bethel Church onto Chimney Mountain Road and follow it for 2 miles to FS 79 (Tray Mountain Road) which is maintained for four-wheel-drive vehicles and pickup trucks. Travel FS 79 north for 7 miles to Tray Mountain Gap [Fig. 29(49)] at the intersection of FS 698 and the AT crossing.

For a address near by here is Bethel Church - 40 Bethel Rd, Sautee Nacoochee, GA 30571

 

Tray is in sautee nacoochee? I did a land survey out there once.... It SUCKED! lol damn mountains

 

Thats what google says

I vote for camping at tray mountain Sat night. Admittedly I dont remember seeing a camp site along the trail when I was up there.

 

New guy in the tread. What time is planned to start on Sunday? Newb to wheeling and anxious to get going. This is going to start on the easier side of trey?

 

I will get back to you on time later, need to check with @The Tarvis. Camping at trey sat night, trails will be picked sat night sun morning depending on peoples abilities

 

So not 100% sure what all people want since this is so last minute, but I think some people on Sunday wanted to do a meet and greet at a restaurant somewhere. If thats still the case we should try and ride saturday morning then camp at trey.

 

I had wanted to meet at restaurant then ride but would it be easier for people to come to the campsite like 8:30(i get up early) then we can choose from like 5 trails which we want to do. Go to a restaurant maybe for lunch?

 

I've gotta get back into town around ~1pm on Sunday. We could do Trey Sunday morning and if anyone wants to join me for some forest roads during the day on Saturday you're more then welcome.

 

Ok, what campsite do you want to use? Josh had mentioned one about a half mile down the trail. What time do you think people driving up Sunday should arrive at?

 

So the map posted earlier is kinda wrong, that route goes through private property so you gotta do this:



The camp site is around that red pin somewhere, they're easy to spot off to the left. If we wanna go up chimney the back down we'd probablyd need 2-3 hours so I'd say try and get there around 10 at the latest.

 

Does anyone have any questions on this plan?

 

If anyone wants to join me Saturday message me sometime beofre like noon tomorrow and i'll send you my phone number. Joey's already got it, I'll be at the campsite ~7, before it gets dark. Anyone know what the burn laws are right now?

 

Gov sites seem to agree that the burn ban ends Sept 30, didnt see anything specifically concerning the drought.

 

Well this is fun:

So early Sunday for the trails? PM numbers please

 

If at all possible, I'd like to at least know the meeting spot for Sunday morning since I have at least 1-1.5 hr drive from E. Cobb.

 

We'll be trying to camp around this point: here
