Construction has begun on the bridge. And the trail is much need of maintenance.

Rode this a couple of weeks back and honestly it should be turned back to nature. Horse riders have ruined any part of a trail that was here. Easily 1 ft deep horse tracks where they have went through after this winters snows. Shame because it might have had potential but this is a wasted effort.

Singletrack? Maybe there USED to be singletrack here, but there isn't any more. It looks like a skidder with a 5 foot wide blade has bulldozed all of the trails sometime in the last month or so leaving all of the "trails" as super highways through the woods. You could easily drive an ATV down these trails. The only thing slightly cool about this place is the abundance of historical sites.... but the mountain biking? The mountain biking sucks.

Did this trail today. The trail head parking at Frady Branch is closed, but if one is willing to fjord the creek where the road is washed out, it's worth the effort. There are other ways into the LRWMA that allows access to this trail as well. It can be accessed via Pear Tree Orchard Rd off Currahee Mountain Rd I believe. Though the conditions are not the best in some areas, so waiting for summer may still be advisable.

This morning, a drove over 50 miles to come and ride this trail. I got there, only to see the parking area closed off, with a sign saying "Trails closed due to damage caused by recent heavy rains." I wasted a lot of time getting here, and I didn't even get to ride it. Hopefully the Toccoa area riders will get this place back up and running soon so I can go check it out. So if you had heard of this place and were thinking about going to ride it, you may want to wait until next summer or so.
