Keep us posted. If extra help is need, please ask. My XJ is not even 4x4 yet, but we all need more places to ride.
We went and did Horsepasture as a Saturday drive in the wife's 03 Explorer, can't get the XJ finished fast enough for either of us. But it was sad, too. Too much has closed. Driving around Saturday, I remembered when Horsepasture was wide open, and and Bear Creek and the Auger Hole trail were a Forest Service Road off Frozen Creek road in Rosman. Glassy Mountain was still open, and there were trails in Old Fort, even Columbus.
I have not seem them in person yet, but I wonder if the pipes on Bear Creek road were two steel I-Beams I drove my CJ-5 across over 20 years ago.
