Just a heads up guys, Potts isn't what it used to be.... go prepared

There's bypasses around alot of stuff. I took a JKU on 35's through there last weekend and you can find routes that are doable and still have fun.

I'll open this huge can of worms, but those bypasses have been made by the locals and aren't "approved" just so you know

So ive asked a few of my peeps and we've never heard of Potts..... From the map it looks like its just 14 miles of straight trail?

Accurately I'd say it's closer to 8 miles of actual trail.. its by far the toughest PUBLIC trail in Virginia, pre covid it could be done fairly easily with open diffs and 33s.. 2 weeks ago it was wet and it was challenging for multiple rigs on 40s locked front and rear

Potts can be as easy or as hard as one could want. You have a couple of mud holes, multiple rock play areas which can be extremely challenging and if you get done and want more, run it backwards and those play areas show you a completely different set of challenges.

It's not the Ranch but it's free, camping is free if you stay at the Pines and it's always a good time.
