The wife and I attemped to drive to Max Patch this past weekend. I Google-mapped the directions, and got hopelessly lost on some road that dead ended. We finally got back on Max Patch Road and came to a trailer with a lot of junk cars sitting around. There was a FS road through an open gate that led uphill, but by then I was out of the notion. Was this the road we should have taken? There was a sign that read Maple something Gap. After we gave up and headed for Hot Springs on NC 209, we passed a road marked Max Patch Road that came in from the left. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
