Title: Rose River Fire Road in Shenandoah National Park, October 2007
Credit: When I visited Thomas Milam's old property in October 2007, I drove along the Old Blue Ridge Turnpike - Virginia Route 670 - until it dead-ended at the eastern boundary of the Shenandoah National Park where the old turnpike continued as the Rose River "fire road".
