So planning the drive for this year...last year was about 110 miles/3.5 hours. I think that felt a little long.
I keep saying that I'm gonna spend more time relaxing on Saturday one of these years, and I think this year will be it. Planning on a 50-60 mile route that just hits some stuff closer to the lodge.
That cool?
Honestly had a blast with the off-road crew last year... we could have been out for 6 hours and still felt short to me.
How far is tail of the dragon from the lodge?
hour or two... but its not needed. There are plenty of really tight (and empty) mountain roads along the Pisgah highway.

Last year I did it on my way home on Sunday, along with Wayah Bald. I will likely do so again this year if you care to join.
Tellico rd looks nice.

It's not really worth the drive over there. Three years ago we did a long loop that included the dragon and we drove for about 9 hours. Plus the dragon was, as suspected, way to ****ing busy because it was Saturday. It's fun to do once but don't believe the hype.

Most of the way out the group was following some guy casually cruising on a Harley who would not let us by. The return pass was a bit better.

This is peak dragon
How does everyone feel about exactly one mile of hard-packed, well-maintained gravel road on the drive? There's a phenomenal road in the Cashiers area, but for some reason, there's one mile in the middle that's unpaved.
