Sweet Springs Turnpike, designated FR 176 reference, Craig County, VA
About this trail
Sweet Springs Turnpike is Forest Road 176 in the Eastern Divide district of George Washington and Jefferson National Forests near New Castle. The current motor-vehicle map designates this road for highway-legal vehicles year-round. Expect an unpaved forest road with ruts and changing weather conditions; snow, mud, storm damage or temporary closures may make travel unsuitable. Stay on FR 176 and respect gates and private land. Nearby Potts Mountain Jeep Trail and wilderness areas have separate rules. The pin is an approximate point on the named public forest road, not parking or a trailhead. The three original images and the original empty review record are historical.
