Whiskey In The Jar Map

Whiskey in the Jar is one of the South Rutherford classics and a trail that you'll want to pedal back up to ride again. It's relatively fast through dense forests and follows the same path as a creek. There are no major features on the trail, just flow, loam and some chunder to keep things interesting.

Description

For a similar ride, consider The 'stache or PHD. The top of the trail can be accessed via the South Rutherford gravel road climb and ends just a short pedal from the parking lot.

Shuttling this trail is possible assuming the gravel road is open.
