There's a group of us going this saturday. We will be on it and part of 12mile. Meeting at 730 at the truck stop off exit 24 on i40 take a left if coming from asheville there's a cafe in it
Yea id liked to had more time for everyone but wasn't sure about how many ppl would go till last night... we are doing a cleanup day there a little more into the winter weather so there isn't as much growth and critters
How "not difficult"? I've heard about it, but not much. I found a few pics of it online. It exits right off the side of I40 right? Would a bone stock rig on 31" A/T do just fine? I wouldn't mind a relaxing day up in the mountains with the wife and dogs, we would probably take her Infiniti QX4 (basically a R50 Nissan Pathfinder)
You would have no issues whatsoever. I took my YJ up there open/open in the rain. It is a great little trail.
You can take the LONG way to Hot Springs that way too. I definately recommend heading to Max Patch if you're gonna be out that way.
Around 10 ppl so far... hurricane is really not that rough but had a person tell me that the goats trail off twelve mile they were dragging diffs most of the way with 35s

Ok, I'm not worried about a little body scrapage, that's probably a given due to the low hanging Infiniti front bumper and running boards vs what's on a Pathfinder, but I just don't want to wind up punching a rock through the gas tank, or hydrolocking it on a creek crossing, something stupid like that.
Max Patch is pretty much all the way up at the NC/TN line right?
yea no worries GCncsuHD Quote:

I would love to but can't make it this time. It is a nice trail for stock rigs but has a few places to play as well. The goat trail is not that bad. I did it in the spring on 31s with open diffs & only had to be tugged once.
Smitty....You know I'll be there!! hope we have a good turn out! Hurricane is a good easy trail, with a few spots that can be made difficult, few hill climbs, mud pits, creek crossings, rocks. Goat trail....a little more washed out
