Yeah, I heard that on the local news last night and was planning to PM you this morning. I guess my first question would be is it just the "staffed" portion of the park that is to be closed (like where the picnic areas and monument are)?
I think a few of the roads we have on our route pass through portions of either High Point State Park and/or Stokes State Forest. If Stokes is not being effected, then at least those roads will not be gated off but I worry that the one road through High Point may end up closed. (Looked at a map real quick, and it looks like Sawmill Road is part of High Point, but Sunrise Mountain Road, which was the five mile one-way road, is part of Stokes and should be okay)
Let me know if you can find out anything from the Parks Department about the roads cutting through High Point and whether or not they will still be open.
