Anybody got any recommendations where I could take my Jeep for some light wheeling with my son?

Doug just shared with you our January trip.  There were a few points where you might want a locker or a winch, but if it were dry you should be fine, I did the entire trip with plenty of mud open/open and my family had a blast.  The lower Trey mountain and Charlies creek stuff was great, with a great river crossing.  The Bell mountain part near Hiawasee was a bit hairy if you had not done that type of thing before, and if wet, yes its hairy w/no spotter or available assistance.  Now this was my first time out, and I'm sure the big boys who are reading this are chuckling at me since they are hardcore wheelers.    ;D

Doug appears to like changing his shorts out on a regular basis and he advocates keeping a piss bottle in your jeep for long offroad journeys. 

Well I am coming back for more... with lockers and better equipment.
