Big Frog Loop in 4k!!, 1st time overlanding. Epic off road solo camping adventure in Cohutta

For my 1st overlanding experience I’ll take a solo trip on the big frog loop in the Cohutta Wilderness.

The Cohutta wilderness is in north Georgia and Southern Tennessee. It’s also called the big frog wilderness. The loop is a group of service roads that circle the National Forest. There are also numerous offshoots to explore.

We’ll encounter a few ruts, bumpy tails, switchback, and small rocks along the way. These are forest service roads so it never gets dangerous, 20-25 degrees is the most off camber I ever got.

We’ll cross a few streams and rivers also. Great views of the mountains, crystal clear weather provided sunsets and stargazing at night too

All of the trails were easy, I’m in a slightly modified Jl wrangler sport and had zero trouble. You won’t need a rubicon. It would be safe for longer wheel bases like trucks, gladiators, tacomas, etc.

I went solo but I had plenty of recovery gear, air compressor, firewood, propane grill and heater. Found a secluded primitive campsite, slept in the Jeep. I will definitely return for future Overland Adventures, and hopefully have more time to explore
