Callalantee - Mountain City, TN

[uncc civilengineer]

These were taken a few weeks ago... We didnt have any passengers so not many pics... Just a taste of what's there really.. Some trails are hard to find but after you do I think it's worth it...

Anyways here's a few pics:

Headed out

Headed into Welder

In one of the Creek Beds that leades to Little Tellico and Easy Out

Above Creek bed exit at Little Tellico/Easy Out (pick your side)

Easy Out (everyone had to pull cable)

Some crazy hill climb to the top of the Mountain... IT keeps going for what seems like a half mile or so. Pic doesn't do it justice at all.. IT took 4 tries for him to make it, hitting the bottom at about 35mph...

Looks like fun. It is 90 miles closer then Tellico for me but that does not mean anything on driving time. I will probalby have to go to Florida for Turkey day with the family so that weekend of wheeling is out. I want to hit up Harlan and now this place. URE is the only thing I can do in a day that is why I go there the most.

Tows just fine.... But, I run a Equal-i-Zer Sway Control hitch, Tekonsha P3 Controler, and Up-Country springs on it....

Yeah it'd be nice to tow it w/ a 2500 or 250 but it gets the job done... It'll maintain 70 on flat to slight up hills... But in the Mountain's it'll pull 55 no problem.. MPG averages around 13 though..

I'm actually picking up a 14foot open center car hauler to save weight... The trailer in the picture is a 18' closed center hauler..

Have you looked at the Featherlight brand?

At the rate that Aluminum has sky rocketed I can't even begin to imagine how expensive those trailers are at this point... It's probably getting into the range of selling the grand and picking up a F250
