I've got another route that goes South, would take us to Hiawasee Lake/Dam, northern GA mountains and then the final leg on US 28 North out of Franklin, NC. It's posted elsewhere in The Forum.
I indeed think I will let you take the lead on our new route plan IF the Dragon still remains closed when we arrive.
Thanks for looking out for all of us here.
I am currently in Hawaii on spring break and will return home on Easter Sunday....but I'm following along with the thread here and any developments as we approach our weekend GTG
I still want to plan the Fontana Dam visitors center on Saturday morning for a photo shoot prior to making our Saturday run.
Our Sunday run through the Cherahola Skyway would normally return via the Dragon as well so not sure if we can do this with an alternate route back or not.
I really would like to keep this part of our itinerary with an adjustment in the route for any other road closures.
