I haven't driven up to Carver's Gap from Erwin yet - anybody know the best way?

I'm headed up there in the AM to hike back to Erwin I think.....

It looks like you can save a lot of time by going to Buladean and cutting over through Hughes Gap on Road 1330 - but I'm not sure what that road is like....

It is pretty winding but a great drive and it is a tough hike NOBO.....so many peaks and false peaks there :)

yes go to hardware store in unicoi and turn right ... turn left by scotts farm and head towards the laurels. at the "T", take a right. At the next "T" take a right. At the next "T" [19e] the 4 lane, take a right towards roan mt.
