2025 Upcoming Adventures
Iron Gap October 3-5
VIP MEMBERS ONLY
The Iron Gap trail in Tennessee is a popular off-roading route featuring a mix of terrain including dirt, larger river rocks, and multiple water crossings along a creek edge.
The trail is about 5.1 miles long and divided into two parts; the first leg is moderately challenging with bumpy sections and slick rock climbs near water crossings. The trail conditions can vary significantly with weather, especially water depth and flow. The first leg ends at a scenic camping and meeting spot with an optional challenging shelf climb obstacle.
Beyond this, the trail becomes more difficult. It is accessible year-round and offers a diverse off-road experience with rocks, mud, and water crossings

THE GEORGIA TRAVERSE Nov 13-16 2025
VIP MEMBERS ONLY
The Georgia Traverse is a 390-mile off-road adventure designed for Jeeps and other off-road vehicles, spanning across Georgia, North Carolina, Tennessee, and ending at the Georgia/Alabama border.
There are numerous dispersed camping sites along the route, as well as developed campgrounds and quaint B&Bs.
Route is intended to be traveled from east to west, starting at Burrells Ford Road along the Georgia/South Carolina border. It winds through the Appalachian Mountains, the Chattahoochee-Oconee National Forest, and the Cohutta Wilderness, offering breathtaking landscapes and diverse terrains.
The route includes about 226 miles of unpaved roads, featuring gravel, dirt, rocky, and muddy surfaces, while the remaining 164 miles are paved. While the trail is generally considered easy, some sections can be challenging, especially during adverse weather conditions or at water crossings like Charlie's Creek.
