I am taking my three sons down to Uwharrie for spring break. So this would be family friendly. I am curious if there any interest in joining?
Drive down Saturday, wheel Sunday and Monday.
I am sucker for jeep badges. So we would definitely hit Dickey Bell.
Speaking of badges, Gulches Off road park is nearby, but appears to only be open Friday-Sunday. It appears the whole park is a badge.
There are several campsites including a group camp ground, if anyone is interested. I am camping at Badin Lake Campground. https://www.recreation.gov/camping/campgrounds/233911
