My maps show a trail at or near Big Spring Shelter in the Nantahala N.C. (mile marker 98.6) that heads East to a Forest Service Road (no number), which eventually becomes Ball Creek Road. I don't see a trail name.
Google maps, however, show this as a road, and call it Shope Creek Road. The satellite views are inconclusive. The terrain/topo maps can't make up their mind. A thread search here didn't help either.
Anyone know the real story? Thanks!
