approximately 24 miles. Continue past North Carolina border 1.5
miles to the bridge at Stratton Meadows. 100 yds. after the bridge
turn left onto gravel and then turn left at fork and go under the Skyway.
Drive about a mile and turn left on first road to the left, road 61.

you can park at a small lot on the left and walk up if you need to.
Walk in trail
The no gravel road method is to continue east on the Skyway past Stratton
bridge a mile or two and park at Mud Gap on the right. Walk in on a
2 mile abandoned road that is fairly level, rough in some places.
