Went on two trails recently;

"Magnolia Trail"
Raleigh NC
Trail head:

(on google maps)
The XJ on the trail:


Description: This trail was fairly well maintained as a good portion of it was just an old abandoned service road. Pretty rough cement road, multiple pot holes, that eventually dropped off onto a gravel road with a heavy angle causing the jeep to flex hard to the Left.

"Rooster Trail"
Raleigh NC
Trail head:

(bad google maps photo when it was still privately owned)
The XJ on the trail:


Description: This trail was very overgrown. for the first quarter mile it was just crowded bushes creeping onto the trail, and low hanging pine trees. It at one point was a driveway to a cabin that got demolished and the land is now a public service roads of sorts. some loose cement road left in the first mile, after that it drops off onto a very steep gravel path with woods all around.
