I'm in process of compiling a map of Callalantee from every map I could find online (I actually found several!) and from the camp.

I think I have a few conflicts and info gaps, and would like some help from anyone with a fair knowledge of Callalantee trails and specific points.

Please chime in if you can help

BTW...here it is so far!

Scott:rolleyes:
 
my computer wont let me look at the map and even if i could i dont think i could help. i just know where the trails sorta are not where they go and all. good luck and thanks for doing it
 
Here is mine and Alan A's most recent map On my last visit everything directly south of the campground (most of Red, all of Brown,and Gold, some of White) was closed as they are logging that area again. I haven't been up in a couple of months....Might have to head out some more...Too much other wheelin' going on right now.
 
There is no guessing or any crayon drawing on our maps. Only GPS markings. If it's not on the map, we ain't run it yet. Call NORAD or NEXRAD or whatever Military agency is in charge of the GPS satellites if you think our positioning of Pull Cable and Little Tellico are off.
 
I noticed the duplicate trails look bout the same shape wise!

Noticed also, the turquoise trail, that isnt Armour All, is it?

I have been overlaying these maps onto satellite maps and they look pretty accurate. Even the slight diffs in trail shape is normal with a GPS, while offroading, but you can still see the shape is correct for that trail

On the trailhead @ Green trail, there was a sign that read "Little Tellico". Is that actually the trail or just the way to it?

Also, we had followed the green graveled trail all the way to the finished "end" and ran upon a yarder in a clearing. There was the trail off to the right and behing us. we took it and it brought us down to the 4way. Im assuming the depictionof this on my map is correct?

Could anybody rate these trails for me? Ill add that to the map.

Thanks for any help on this!!

You don't reckon it's because they're 30' apart? :D

LOL!...EEEEYYYAAAAAA Could be!!

BTW...here is a map I was workin on for Uwharrie. This one was done from a Gov Land Use map, so I know it should be accurate. And it overlays a satellite map exactly! (That was pretty cool to see that) (Altitudes are added or subtracted from a baseline altitude. They may still be off a bit)

Not sure who put that sign up, but the entrance to Little Tellico was always off of the orange trail just past the entrance to Big Tellico/Pull Cable.
 
I wish I would have had this Callalantee map this weekend.
We were up there and according to the chicken scratch xerox thing they have as a "map(?)".......I think we were wheeling in New Jersey!

btw- nice map.....and the one fer URE....now I can stop making a GPS'ed map of URE.
 
Somebody tell me....please....

What would Welder be rated?


Matt
 
So I take it by the no response that this place is under development and none of the trails have ratings. How long would it take to ride the whole place? If I go up there soon I don't want to waste a good trip riding the easiest stuff.
