Compared to how it used to be itโ€™s straight as an arrow. OK, thatโ€™s not entirely true as after passing the AT there is one 180 degrees turn. Beautiful road that the GA DOT straightened several sections at a time, even one near Clayton recently. You will not have any problems and the biggest climb is after Hiawassee.

If the state highway department doesnโ€™t say โ€œnoโ€ or โ€œstrongly not advised,โ€ I go. Be worry free! No need to โ€œknowโ€ all the possible challenges.

No real problems or any tight switchbacks all the way to Blairsville. Iโ€™ve pulled a fiver, travel trailer and 40โ€™ class A pulling a Honda on a dolly many, many times both ways. There is a few truck lanes but not a steep grade either way. Now 129 south out of Blairsville is a different animal.
