Did you stop by Louise's while you were in the area?Drove up old 105
Not this time. We have ate their in the past though. This area is basically our backyard so we frequent it pretty often.Did you stop by Louise's while you were in the area?
We're down in Concord, so it's a bit of a trip, but we've been going up Wilson's Creek Gorge to Blowing Rock for ribs at Woodland's for years. Sometimes we then ride down the parkway to have pie at Louise's. We've also been going out to Wiseman's view for years, but I only recently rode up old 105 and realized it was the road that Wiseman's view is off of. In a few weeks we're planning to run that whole loop, meet in Morganton, ride up to Blowing Rock, down to Louise's then Wiseman's view, then back down 105. Should be a nice day trip in the mountains for us.Not this time. We have ate their in the past though. This area is basically our backyard so we frequent it pretty often.
Awesome! We live just at the foot of the mountain basically near lenoir nc. We pretty much live up the mountain on the weekends for hiking and mountain biking. That will definitely be a good all day trip for sure! I wish old 105 was a little more “trail” then it is road but it has some fun spots. Im wanting to get a group together and do hurricane creek soon.We're down in Concord, so it's a bit of a trip, but we've been going up Wilson's Creek Gorge to Blowing Rock for ribs at Woodland's for years.

Cool. My brother has a place up in Jefferson and he used to live in Wilkesboro and he used to have a Jeep. We've done a couple of the fire roads up there, but I have no idea where I was. I've been looking for places to take the Gladiator. I've had a couple of more built Jeeps in the past and did Tellico and pretty much all of Uwharrie with them, but I haven't been to Uwharrie to do anything but shoot in years. I'd be interested in checking out Hurricane Creek. I'm not going to beat on the Gladiator like I did with my other Jeeps, but I'm always interested in challenging myself and the Jeep. Are you on any of the local Facebook Jeep groups?Awesome! We live just at the foot of the mountain basically near lenoir nc.

Yea im looking to do about the same with mine. Use to frequent richlands and other local kinda rough stuff when i had toyotas. This is my first jeep. Wanting to go in slow atleast maybe after the 1st body damage ill do some harder stuff . But hurricane creek isn't to bad from the videos i have watched. Looks like it can be a bit muddy and rutted out in a few spots but thats appears to be the worst it. I would like to be on a bigger tire before i do it as the stock 33s may not give me the ground clearance i need. But we will see. And yes i think im on all the local jeep fb pages.Cool.

Cool, we'll have to catch up sometime. I'm on 35s, but don't have lockers yet. I watched a couple of videos of Hurricane Creek, I agree it looks doable from what I can see.Yea im looking to do about the same with mine.
