Title: NEED SOME HELP PLANNING TRIP
Post by: RIVERADO on July 30, 2013, 08:41:19 PM: //:hlp//. Hey guys. Looking for a little help. I am planning a ride for some buddies and I this Saturday and looking for a great place to go near Carrollton ga 30117. Still really looking for rivers or creeks but any great trails would be awesome. Just looking for something we could ride and enjoy all day and maybe have a fire that night. But still close enough that we could make a drive back same night. Some of the guys won't be able to stay. And suggestions greatly appreciated.

Lets go. If it's dry, no problem.

With that said both are great parks, especially if it's dry. I think Morris has more bypasses/options at the major obstacles so that stock to well modified can ride together.
