Description

From Quarry Gap Road, turn right onto Locust Gap Trail. This starts as a groomed dirt road with a few shallow stream crossings. On your right are a few car camping sites if you ever want to spend the night.

After the campsites, the road becomes progressively rockier and you enter a dense pine forest. Once at the four-way intersection, take Butterfly Trail or Greenwood Road Trail back to Milesburn Road, or Yellow Ridge Trail and Yellow Ridge Descent back to Quarry Gap Road.
