MEET: NOON OCTOBER 18, 2008 at the Dickey Ridge Visitor Center
Enter the North Gate of Skyline Drive in Front Royal, VA (pay $15 Entrance Fee) and proceed 5 miles to the Dickey Ridge Visitor Center.
Dinner will be at South River Grill, Exit 94 in Waynesboro, VA following the cruise. 
The Blue Ridge forms the eastern rampart of the Appalachians. The Skyline Drive runs along the Blue Ridge at an elevation of 2700-3000 feet (822-915 m). The photo was taken at the Rockytop Overlook where the elevation was 2860 feet (870 m).
The best time to go there is in the fall when the leaves are changing color. Obviously by mid-November the trees have lost their leaves but it is no less spectacular for it.
These mountains are among the highest that the east coast United States has to offer.
