Just a few of my pics from Alpine Helen, GA. Went up there and rented a cabin with my girlfriend and some coworkers. Had a blast.

Took the GX470 up and it had no issues on the steep dirt roads leading up to the cabin

this was a property rented out by the a-1 rental company. it is not directly over the city. we were about 9 miles out from the city but most of that is winding dirt road. it is called the majestic summit
