The original plan was to run the bypass @ Guardrail and Helicopter Pad and possibly go up Slickrock if we had the time. Unfortunately, Mother Nature didn't agree and dumped about 2" of rain on the trails the night before and continued to rain until about 11am.

Those obstacles are bad enough w/o the rain, so we did 4 to 6 to 1. We stopped for lunch at Fains Ford and played on the ledges there a bit. We didn't stop to take many pics.

Less Pics = More Wheelin' Time!

here's a sample:

hey Andy, where is that waterfall at? I don't remember seeing it last time we were there.
Nice pics BTW

 

Bald River Falls. North of the ORV between State Line Campground and Tellico Plains, TN.

I went to the north pay station and then took 1 down to the cabin. the north pay station is about 1.5 hours from my house compared to 2.5 hours to drive to Murphy via interstate and then along the tellico river and then up to the cabins.

 

oh, OK I havent been to that pay atation yet. Someday I might travel that far in the park.

 

where 6 comes back out onto 1 is where the pay station is.

the falls are about 10 or so miles north of the pay station on paved road.

 

Ok I have been that far. I just didn't realize it.

 

Excellent pics. I really dig that red color of your 4runner.

 

thanks!

we didn't stop for any pics, so i snapped as i could along the way. unfortunately, a lot of the ones i took were blurry, so i didn't put them up.

it was a fun trip. they did some tougher stuff on saturday. hopefully, they got pics of it...
