Authorities said the tractor-trailer got stuck on the U.S. Forestry Service Road #630, four miles inside the Cohutta Wildlife Management Area.

There appeared to be no damage to the tractor-trailer.

“Just because your GPS tells you a certain way doesn’t mean you have to go that way,” the department wrote on Facebook.
