Starting from the parking area/area with the sign for the trail, The trail <br />
starts off with a tough climb (which is a sweet descent at the end). <br />
Continue straight on the old road bed, and hang a right onto the trail <br />
(following the trail signs). The trail is descently marked, and at one point <br />
you need to hang a right on FS 92A, and then a left back onto the trail. <br />
Follow it all the way around and you will end up back on the old road grade, <br />
and descending that gnarly climb you started. Some of the sections of this <br />
trail are freaking sweet descents (with lots of opportunities for hangtime), <br />
and others are crazy steep climbs. Pick up Jim Parham's "off the beaten <br />
track" for reference if you would like, but I would recommend finding a FS <br />
map somewhere.
From Cornelia, head North/Northeast on Dick's Hill Pkwy (Hwy 13) and hang a <br /><br />right on Lake Russell Road across from the Lake Russell Convenience store. <br /><br />go 2.5 miles, and hang a left at the sign. go left at the fork and park over by <br /><br />the group campground.
