Got a contact name or an addy? Website?
 
had a group of guys go up there from the isuzu board the first big snow we had. Pretty sure same spot you're talking about.

not sure about any private land tho... but its all dirt road and forrest roads up there right off 40 TN/NC line

they cleared a bunch of trees and had to turn around because of a massive flood on the creek: (weird to see all this because I have driven a honda prelude up there in the summer time just for the views)

hows that?
 
Seems like this is the road I found several years ago by accident.
Forrest service type road. I remember at one point coming upon a mountain that was "bald" didn't have any trees whatsoever on it. Saw a few people hiking up it. It was cold out and I wasn't really prepared for something like that.
 
You guys post up next time you're riding out there...I've been trying to find somebody to go with.
 
The trail system up there used to be a lot better until the Forest Service got involved. The made the trails pretty much like a dirt road. I heard one of the reasons was because you basically stopped on I-40 and turned onto the trail and it was actually pretty dangerous if you had a large group. I was up there last in 03 and the trails were pretty good. I was in a group of about 15 Land Rovers and we pretty much stopped traffic getting in to the trails.
 
yea ther is a few good trails and some good wheelin if you know were to go. think im gonna head out this weekend and check it out, if anyone wants to head out with drop me a pm
