Alternative Routes

For those folks that are attending the 2010 MINIs on the Dragon that would normally arrive via the US129-The Dragon. In case the rock slide has not been cleared and the "Dragon" has not been re-opened, here are some alternative routes

Mapquest has a great feature where you can "avoid" areas of our choice:

HERE is a Printable PDF of the directions below:

First go to MAPQUEST
Then type in your starting Address
Then for the Destination City Enter: Fontana Dam
Then for the Destination State Enter: NC
Then hit "Directions"


Now Go Down Below the map to the Line by Line Directions.
If there is a line that has US129, hit "Avoid" to the left of that line.
A "confirm avoid" pop-up will appear, click "OK"

This will give you a Dragon Free Route.

(please note there is also a rock slide on I-40 just north of the NC/TN border, so make sure your route does not go that way either)

Below is a image show a re-route taking you thru Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg and the Great Smoky National Park.
