I've been wanting to hit up some trails around there:

• Sarah's Creek
• Earl's Ford
• Beastly Knob OHV Area
• Coopers Gap Rd
• Winding Stair Gap

Some of these with a stock truck, and also dependent on weather conditions, might become challenging, so I was kind of waiting to go with at least another vehicle to help with potential recovery. It might be fun to start a thread on the forum and pick one weekend to head out there and meet up.

And also agree with @anand that Georgia Traverse is great starting point to researching places to drive in North Georgia. Some of the Traverse goes through the roads surrounding Cohutta Wilderness; it's mostly FSR and not really super technically but very beautiful and worth the trip!

After pulling down the Trails Offroad app, I decided to go up Nimblewell Gap Road (which was really just a pretty well maintained dirt road) and then down Old Bucktown Road, which Trails Offroad ranks as a "moderate" difficulty trail. The Grenadier did well. Didn't have to lock any diffs and was able to stay in high range without any problems whatsoever. Total time to run ~4 miles of Nimblewell and ~2 miles of Bucktown was about 2 hours, up and back. Bucktown will really show you how nicely it handles in mud, over rocks and up some very rutty "road"
