| If you go to currahee, be aware that the main road to the top can sometimes be closed.
There is a path coming up from the base, but its kind of hard to find if you dong know where to go.
Somebody should add how to get to the path and where to park to the mp area for currahee |

That's a great bit of info right there. You seem to be knowledgeable about this base approach, why not add a beta comment on the area page?
Also, Oliver that sucks about Ruth having to work more. I'm heading to Crowders this Saturday (you're welcome to come) but I'll let you know next time I'm in your area. |

| To access the trail to the top of Curahee. Park on Hwy 184 0.9 miles south of Dicks Hill Pkwy. There is a polling place on the west side of the road with dual locked gates. Just park along Hwy 184 preferably not blocking the gates. There is an obvious trail built by the boy scouts that takes you to the top. Turn right at a boulder with a little mini cave to access the Main Face. Keep going straight another minute and then turn left to access the Brick Wall |

Thanks for the beta, Mark. Is this a public trail or does it cross private land? |

It is a public trail that was built as part of a Eagle Scout project years ago. Feel free to put any trail work in on your way to and from the cliff. A small handsaw and loppers come in handy. This is the way that I always go to get some extra exercise in. |
