From I-40, take exit 320, Genesis Road, and travel north 8 miles to the entrance to Catoosa WMA.
I was pleasantly surprised to see more planted areas and freshly opened/cut areas this year! Finding decent paths to hike in carrying gear was much better this year!
Tons of hunting opportunities, hard hunting definitely requires you to put your boots on the ground and do your homework. There are some big deer and great game opportunities. Lots of Pigs and some Bear. Very few open hunting opportunities most are drawn quota hunts.
Brought our eBikes out here and had a great time. Lots of gravel roads to ride, found some gravel two-tracks, and a number of dirt tracks to ride. Not crowded and a great place to get away.
This is a really fun place to off-road. They have mostly easy trails but you'll find some challenging places if you explore enough. Also, it's close proximity to the Nemo train tunnels is great ... you can visit both in the same day.
Great outdoors experience my Family's jhave been coming hunting and RVing here for 50 years.
