    see i refuse to even try to deal with tourists or cops during daylight

    thats why i drive only after 11pm or so on weeknights usually since there is no one on the roads

Hwy 9 then goes towards Suches but turns right at R-Ranch/Stone Pile and ends at Turners Corner. From there it's 11/19/129 towards Blairesville. The only roads to Suches is Hwy 60 and Hwy. 180.

    Hwy. 348/Richard B. Russell is normally a fun mountain pass but probably not this time of year with salt and gravel on it though...if it's even open.

    you are DAMN right about the salt and gravel haha... i bout went sideways off the damn cliff! that shit was scurry

    I live 5 min from "Helen Mtn." coming from Cleveland, and about 15min from 129 "Blood Mtn." Those are some fun mountains but I have lost a few friends on them from STUPID driving... If anyone ever does a Dragon's Tail run HIT ME UP!!!

    Dibs on a seat next time you make a trip up there. We all need to make another trip like we did a few weeks back, too bad I'll be in my pathetically slow Audi.
