Fourwheeling at Sarah's Creek Rd and Charlies Creek Road

 

Arriving at the RaceTrac in Clayton at 11:00.  The Wrangler is already dirty because it had been fourwheeling the previous day at Jeff's farm.

 

 

 

We met a fellow Jeeper, Clayton, in Clayton.  He has a 2019 2-door Wrangler, and he gave us guidance on local trails and Wrangler usage.

 

 

 

We are 9-weeks pregnant with our first child.  This is the same Warwoman Dell Recreation Area location where we posed on May 6.

I am becoming more acclimated to offroading.

 

 

 

The suspension is pretty impressive to me.

 

A Carolina Lily that Haocheng found.

 

Grapes and blueberries.  We always eat well in the woods.

 

Lunch sandwiches.  Of course, we are eating at 2:30PM.

 

 

 

A steep incline loop to the side of the main road at Charlies Creek Road approximately half a mile from the river crossing.  Last time I didn't think I could handle this side tangent, but this time I successfully navigated it a few times.

 

Video of the side trail

 

The music playing in the video is Procol Harum's The Idol from the 1974 album Exotic Birds and Fruit.  Fun old progressive rock.  A great tune.  Have a listen.

 

On the way back we drove down Water Gauge Road to relax next to the Chattooga River.  I even went for a swim.  It was very pleasant.

 

On Water Gauge Road just before the trip back home to Athens.

 

There is a hornet nest on the Water Gauge Road sign.  We stayed far away from it.
