Trail Overview

Maintained gravel forest service road. This route includes numerous hiking trailheads. The southern portion of the route has very spotty cell service, which improves in the northern portion. The northern portion includes many dispersed camping areas located along a small creek. The route is well-traveled and popular on the weekends.

Status Reports

A good drive and scenery, a lot of dispersed camping sites- maybe 2 big group sites, 2 smaller sites, and 4 pull offs for RTT camping (ground is too rocky for ground tents)

Decently maintained gravel road over a mountain in the George Washington National Forest. A few significant ruts and potholes. No open views of the Shenandoah Valley, but did de a few deer watching us.

Easy passage on a well-maintained road. Surprisingly only one of the dispersed campsites was occupied on July 4th weekend.
