Trail Overview

Forrest Service Road 126, locally known as Foster Branch Road, is an out-and-back road. At the entry of the Cohutta Wildlife MGMT Area, you will find the road. A short ride down this road you are met with the West Fork of the Jacks River winding alongside the mountain. This road is gravel suitable for any SUV to easily drive on. This time of the year mid-June the Mountain Laurel is blooming making for a beautiful ride with the river and the blooming flowers. There is one camp spot along the river that would be big enough for a few rigs. At the end, you will run into Jones Cemetery.
