The map provides information on access roads to the wilderness. Also shown are Forest Service roads bordering the area and designated trails which cross it. Trailheads are generally well marked and parking areas are provided. All of the roads that border the wilderness are one-lane dirt, sometimes with a coating of loose gravel. They are wide enough for two cars to pass cautiously.
Curves are sharp and hard to see around.
Often rock breaks through the road surface, creating a washboard ride. From the Ellijay Square, travel west on GA 52 for 9.5 miles to FS 18. After 1.3 miles the pavement ends. At the fork, bear left over a one-lane bridge. At 3.5 miles turn sharply to the right onto FS 68.
