    Taking the youngling to see the grandparents in upstate SC mid-June and plan to do some exploring and camping with the 4runner while I'm away. I've explored a lot of SC trails already and wanted to head into the mountains of NC or TN and looking for recommendations.

    From the little bit of research I've done, looks like Brown Mountain OHV could be a winner but can't find their maps or whether they are currently open on the forest service site. I'm curious if they're closed due to Helene and/or the wildfires from earlier this year.

    Hurricane Creek/Uwharrie also sounds like a good option but haven't looked to see if camping is available (looking for dispersed/primitive where I can just setup wherever I feel like stopping).

    Haven't checked TN yet. Anyone have recommendations or opinions they'd like to share?

    Bump. Been looking at trails in Cherokee National Forest. Still looking for ideas and experiences before I plan a trip out this weekend
