Honobia Creek Scenic Route

Nice weather, rained sporadically throughout the afternoon, just enough to keep the dust down. We took a few nice side quests and saw some exceptional views, but parts of the forest are cut by a paper mill, so there are some uglier ones, too. We thought that the road was decently maintained, in fact, there was a grader next to the road. Closest gas is in Hochatown, there’s no cell service, and it’s reasonable to assume that you won’t see anyone else once you’ve left the pavement. On our way out, we ran across a couple who’d had a puncture and a bad valve stem on the spare. Make sure that your rig is reliable, you’ve got gas, a spare, tools, etc. We had an enjoyable afternoon, it was worth the long drive to and from.

Dusty, some rough places, no issues for the grand cherokee. Saw deer but no bigfoot. Great time. Thanks.

This trail would be a 2 when dry. It was definitely not dry today. Sending it in 4-high seems to be the only thing keeping us from a recovery in about half a dozen locations. Great views up top.

Some places were muddy but for the most part pretty dry. Nice trail with great views
