Going to be in a around Grandfather Mountain and Boone NC on north end of Pisgah national forest this weekend....does anyone have any forest service road or trail suggestions? maybe with points of interest?

Thanks

There's a "Pay to Play" place midway between Beech Mountain and Boone,...but it appears you have to pay for a year's membership to use the trails and then $10 a day after the first day, it's called "Patriot Mountain Offroad Park", worth a call to check it out, I have heard great things about the park.
