A couple days exploring Cherokee, Pisgah and Nantahala Nat'l Forest

Here's about 150 miles of mostly forest service dirt and gravel. It starts in Blowing Rock in case you need to supply with some expensive tourist type stuff and winds around the area including Wilson Creek, Table Rock and Linville Gorge.

This is my first time of uploading a file so I hope it works.........

Doh, thought I was replying to justjames. Hah. Is it a Gmaps link?

I thought that was a link to the map in google maps. Let me work on it some tonight. I'm going to be around the computer filling out some QSL cards and I'll try to get a link to it up. I had shared it somewhere (thought it was here) so people could access it to add routes to it or download it.
 
I ran this route in early March and some of the side roads off this route were gated. The top portion of Table Rock was gated and will open April 1 so I hope the side trails will do the same.

I added these tracks to my map! Some of it was already on there but we're gong to have to do several trips there in the future to check it all out. Thanks!
 
Well, the trip is coming up soon. I upgraded my front coilovers and I'm doing a little shake down run this weekend with a group of other Xterras near Woodstock, Va.

Gonna start checking out gear and packing soon. Thanks for all the help with the maps and info on the area everyone!
 
Sounds like a really fun trip! My wife and I are planning something similar closer to the Fall with the occasional day trip between now and then. Love that area!

Just imported the file into LocusPro. THANKS!
Had a few of these planned/routed out but not as one route.
Not sure what I did when I imported it though. It saved the route line with the details I gave it but it seems to have created a waypoint at every instance your device saved trip data.
LOL, now I have a route with a gagillion arrows on it.

@TerryD , very cool! My wife and I live in Knoxville, but are from Sylva and have family in Newland. We are circling back to the overland setup as our kid is finally old enough and this map helps set up a Knox to Newland to Sylva circuit for multiple trips! Thanks!

WOW! This is exactly what I was looking for! My gf and I where planning a trip down there in October. Is there a way for me to have this map offline on a Iphone? I am technologically challenged.
