Trail Overview
Sandy Ford is a short trail that holds an amazing surprise at the end. The road is regularly maintained; the biggest obstacle is a creek crossing that gets up to 18 inches deep but is passable by any truck or SUV. There are dispersed campsites along the route and if you're lucky to find it empty, there is a beachfront spot on the Chattooga River.

Difficulty
Most of the trail is well-maintained gravel with a single shallow water crossing being the most difficult section. It still remains passable for any SUV or truck.
