Headed to VA for a long weekend in the Roanoke area for an interview. What hiker can resist being so close to the trail and not take a side trip?

I am looking to head to McAfee's Knob. Would anyone be kind enough to send me directions? I am headed in from MI
It looks like I will US 460 Pearisburg to 81 N

Found plethora of details and maps. Wonder if it's a Whitblazer?

One option is to go to Daleville, exit 150 off I-81, and get a shuttle to the trailhead from Outdoor Trails outfitter, 540-992-5850. You can hike about 20 miles back to your car across McA. Knob and Tinker's Cliff. Another benefit is to make it to the Homeplace, one of the best places to eat on the entire Trail. The Homeplace is just a couple of miles from the trailhead on VA311, a pretty easy hitch.

I thank all of you for your responses... it was most helpful and should be in VA in about 11-12 hrs from now. Have a great weekend.
