^^ I'm like 90% sure that's the cabin. It is where it should be according to the directions and it has a green tin roof like it says it does.

If you need a GPS address. The Post office is across the street from the cabin road

US Post Office‎
1940 Nc Highway 28 N
Almond, NC 28702


For anyone that came in November, it's 4 miles south of the last cabin, on 28


*These are in the first post of this thread too..

They spelled birch lane wrong lol

they have directions on their website. they have a link to google maps with all the cabins listed and you can click to get turn by turn directions.....

and it doesn't make since to go through robbinsville unless you guys forget something at costco before leaving. DONT TURN LEFT at the bridge going towards robbinsville, go straight up HWY 74 and go left....

EDIT:

map

and its this one:

pretty much this. Going into Robbinsville and and then back over the cabin will add quite a bit of time. It's easier just to go straight instead of turning left. If you need to go to the grocery store, I'd suggest dropping your stuff off at the cabin first and then driving into Bryson City. There's a decent Ingle's there.

I've used Watersheds "turn by turn" directions before...they're not always correct.

just figured i'd add an address that would definitely be correct for people since last time some folks couldn't input a GPS coordinate into their GPS unit, only address.

The directions from robbinsville were just meant to be a "from robbinsville". If you can't figure it out on your own I'm not really sure I trust you driving near me.

Keep going until you pass Birch Street, soon thereafter you will see our cabins on the hill up to the right (except when foliage is very dense). Do NOT try to go up the steep gravel driveway. Instead, stay on the pavement until it ends, then follow the gravel around and back to the cabin. Once on the gravel road take the first turn WIDE, then you will pass one driveway on your right (a future construction site). Here you will see boulders separating our land from a US Forest Service trail…. Great for hiking and biking.

FV 3 is the first cabin on the left (3 level cabin with green tin roof). FV2 is the second cabin (brown tin roof) and FV1 is the final, smaller cabin (bright red tin roof).

..Who knows. it says the cabins are on the right, then says first one on the left. So maybe they mean go all the way around the cabins and come back from the west side of that. But then the cabins wouldnt be the ones on the right. So..... f**k it, we'll figure it out and you just look for a bright red z06

And a blue sti

i'm following Dana, this could end badly

Haha


I did post the link to the directions. Thanks David for being more elaborate. Jake i'll just be winging it once up there lol. Hopefully they haw service here like they did the last cabin.

Yes I pray for service like last time.

And yes jake we kept straight to head to the cabin last time. That's where all of the forest canopy line places .. are. which i want to do!

Yea I looked into it to maybe set up an event for everyone to do and the zip lines are $80

...sitting in class, ready to hit the road....

Have fun guys...and please NO accidents.....have good video for those who couldn't make it, plz!!!!

I'll be heading up with rsutton tomorrow, leaving Alpharetta/Windward Pkwy around 7am. See you all soon.

Him if y'all leave at 7 that might put you and Minnoe close to the same time. I gave you his number, try and meet up with them along the way, would make it alot easier to meet with the larger group

I should be there around 9 AM if everything goes as planned.

Word of advice, download the PDF, it's super tricky getting here.
