Description Suggest change

Largest concentration of greenstone boulders on the parkway right now. Mountain project only contains the ridgeline right now. Check out  for the dropbox.com/s/6s9bdu0qu9pr6… complete guides.

Getting There Suggest change

Head south on parkway until about MP 18.5 and see well maintained parking lot for White Rock Gap area.

Trail to take is directly across road from parking lot. Take it about 1/4 mile and keep looking left and will start to see the boulders across small stream.
