Man it's all about driving style, I have seen rigs with 35's lifting tires off the ground like crazy, on the other hand I have seen a stock YJ go down this section not lifting a tire and do it like a champ. It's a fun ride there is some mid but it can be avoided for the most part, granted you will see some mud. It's a fun ride give it a try, I have been to bell, Charlie's and tray numerous times, I live in Cleveland so I have pretty much seen it all around here.

Yea been to Beasley, I live in Hayesville, NC 1 mile from Hiawassee where Bell, and Trey is located. Live 20 miles from Charlie's and 20 from Beasley. I do night rides in all of em but Bell. Did ride Bell once at night and learned my lesson lol. But Beasley is OK. Not a flex fest at all. Most all of it is hill climbs that's ***** up or not kinda deal. Dodd looks more my style being I got a Jeep not an ifs. But yea Bell is awesome. Want to know where Dicks creek is for some night riding but really don't wanna miss out on Dodd. Seems right now I ain't got a spot. U can see my rig in my avatar, and yea its not an xj lol but I got it right flex wise to compete with xj, not surpass, I'm.limited but I am pretty technical solo.

I've looked up some places but haven't really found much. That Pull-A-Part place is about 30 minutes away. Was hoping to find something closer haha
Yea I'm 2 hours away and determined to get down there, got a junk yard pretty close but nothing as good as pick n pull. Pricing and availability is where pick n pull beats any competitor.

The Dicks Creek I know of is north of Dahlonega & Cleveland.

Go Hwy 129 north to Turners Corner Café, make a left, first road on the right. Follow it till it dead ends into Dicks Creek/Waters Creek fishing & camping area.
