Hey guys; I just got wind of this run, My son and I would like to go. Will my son have a prob with his stock rig? And the same with me and my BB lift? My son will get off of work at 8am and we will both be leaving from Gwinnett County then. Can we meet up in Helen or somewhere?

No problems for stock rides there is some tricky spots on Charlie's creek road where you to do a little driving.  My dad and I went across both ours are stock tho and had no issues.  Now on bell mtn it's been about 10 years since I went up there but if I remember correctly there is plenty of by pass opportunities to get by with stock ride as well.  I'm thinking we can meet at 10am at the mcdonalds parking lot in Clayton fueled up and ready.  I'll post again with updates on the plans as the time gets closer.

A stock Rubicon shouldn't have any trouble on Charlie's Creek, or any other FS roads.

I dont wanna sound lame but do you mean 20 and 985? I dont know where 900 is.
If you mean 985 and 20 we should be there around 815ish.

Thanks weather looks like it's gonna be great!  Who is going topless? I might take mine off tonight.

Ok First and formost I want to thank Billy and Levy for taking me and my son to Charlie Creek rd. I had such a great time. You guys ROCK !!!. I felt bad for leaving and wanted to continue on to Bell Mountain but my son was beat and needed some sleep. I am now hooked into this.

Not a problem buddy I had a blast it was a great to ride and great day letting jeeps do what they do best.  Look forward to our next trip.  We can explore Rabun for days on all legal roads and connectors that will take us from Clayton to NC or SC or just in Georgia.  It was a great place to grow up and a great place to home.  Cant wait to show y'all more of it!!!!
