Fort Royal and BRP here I come....too good to miss

Re: Day two - Skyline Drive and Blue Ridge Parkway

Thought I was going to end up in Coudersport via TomTom meanderings but horrendous log jam at construction on the southern end of 44 so discovered some new stuff further east and stayed east.



Hey Mac.
Glad you made it back safe.
I’m taking a group this Friday for the weekend.
Can you elaborate more on this construction in 44?

Re: Day two - Skyline Drive and Blue Ridge Parkway

I just took a look at the traffic jam and kept going - was on the very southern end where is T intersectioned with another highway that was 4 lane but not freeway

If I had to guess it was here as it was a dead end where they were turning on to it and I was going to turn then saw the jam up
