Most Current Uwharrie maps

I likey, now if I can just find time to go verify the accuracy!

That's a map that Southeast Overland assisted Two Springs Consulting with. The trail lines came from the USFS. We need to make a few updates for an upcoming event in the spring which will fix a few small issues we have spotted on the map while wheeling at URE.

I like that you have the old map in the back ground with the old trails in it like Gold Min Trail and Rattlesnake Trail.

That is the USGS 7.5 minute quadrangle map. Often the layers on the USGS maps are 2-5 decades old. That hurts in some areas but on the flip side shows you some neat old stuff.

We hiked those old trails this past saturday. Pretty neat to get out and see them.

I thought I would post this up here They have made some minor changes to the trail system. Some where changing the trail numbers.

I like Steve's map better. Maybe we will get an updated version of it.

I'm already working on it! The map layers I work from are direct from the USFS so they 'should' be spatially correct but I have modified them a bit in a few areas to make them more accurate. I'm also adding trail direction arrows on a few trails and updating the legend.

If there is anything y'all want to see let me know and I'll work it in.

Thanks!

New trail opening in 2012?! That is a good sign towards longevity of the park.

Lake View trail...probably not much in the way of obstacles there...unles it gets wet from som feeder streams?

lol......you must be new to the way the forestry system works and cuts trails.


In no way will they open up a trail with a creeks or streams running into it.

It is just an existing trail that was approved for reopening. It was closed back in '92ish, we are working on the reopen of 2 more trails currently.

Yeah, I didn't think it was going to be a difficult one. I have only been doing this wheelin thing for a year now, and I can already see myself getting a little bored with some of the trails. I guess I am going to have to drop a lot more money into the FJ and take it to some of the more challenging parks in neighboring states. Can't determine if this is good or bad.

No need to dump a bunch of money in it, just wheel it!

There are plenty of more challenging private parks within a 4-5 hr ddrive of central NC.

Ure is fun in moderation. Run Daniel-over to Kodak-Dickey Bell-then Dutch John in that order is a good trail run.
