LOL! We have several Rest Areas that have been abandoned by the state on I-95. Some have been repurposed into weigh stations but there are some that are totally unused. They put up a gate on the entrance but leave the exits open. They could be campgrounds but as you said the noise wouldn't be good.

Have an emergency service vehicle cut through would probably be the biggest risk. Are you gonna be at the VW show in Maggie Valley NC this coming weekend?

Just found your channel and subbed! 👍🏻👍🏻 Can you set up camp anywhere along that road? For example near the creek/falls you showed? Is that far off the road? My son and I actually tried to check this place out back in 2016 but came to those houses and it was so overgrown I thought it was all their driveway/property and didn’t proceed further. Turned around and headed back home but I’ve always wondered about this area. I’m actually a stone throw away now and drive past that area every day for work and back. There was a small like 2.2 earthquake there early yesterday morning around 2am I guess. We do have black bear around. We have a momma and cub that hangs around just down the road from us, I’ve seen one cross the road ahead of me on my way to work and an older fella further down from me had one in his driveway last Fall. They’ve never bothered anyone that I know of. We tent camp so I’m always a tad nervous though as we woke one night to our tent being ripped through the rain fly and main tent and so we made lots of crazy noise haha and I eventually got out and looked around. Didn’t see anything around. No limbs or anything by the tent so I can only guess it was a bear? I wanted to look for tracks but it started raining just after this happened and before I got brave enough to peek out so we decided to pack up and head on out. We were planning on leaving that morning anyways. Just got a real early start lol and thankfully had a lot already packed up. That was out on Roseboro Road off of Edgemont, where we like to go from time to time. Someday I’m getting me a small camper or van. For now we rough it in the ol tent but I did just get a truck bed tent I still need to set up to see how it is. Will still also take my regular tent but would use the truck tent just for zzzz. Anyways be safe out there and look forward to browsing around your space here. 🙂

Back in the early 90s I worked for a trucking company out of Lexington, North Carolina, J&S Truck Service. We had a sister company out of Mt Airy (can't remember the name now)... Every so often I'd go over to Mt Airy to get one of their trucks to do a California turn.. Nice little town.

That's an area I need to make the left turn when coming down from Blowing Rock and explore, I'm usually headed to Lenior for some reason or going right to Wilson Creek. I had my doubts about the steak seasoned cabbage as you started to eat it.......should've packed some beef hot dogs and cole slaw dressing just in case 😁 Happy Trails and safe adventures.
