    Hiking

    If attempting to do the Black Mountain Crest Trail (aka, Deep Gap Trail) in its entirety, this is the parking area to leave a second car. There is no actual shuttle for this hike to take you back to your starting point, but having someone pick you up here works as your own, personal shuttle. You can leave your car parked up here overnight, but you can not camp in this area.
