Do you have any further info about the "Potts mountain jeep trail"? Is it a fireroad trail like down in GWNF or more like a Paragon / Rausch Creek park? I have heard of this place over the years but have never been there.

There are 2 ledges that can be challenging. The are some fire road like spots in there. But mostly pretty tight and rocky. Although in the snow it can be a smooth ride depending on where you are starting from. If you enter through the camp site then you will be fine until the 2nd ledge or its bypass. The other end is also about the same but easier. It has gotten pretty rough there over the months and years. People have broken their drive shafts trying those ledges (no cruiser though). Definitely more interesting then GWNF.
