The drive

US 58 runs east from Damascus across the high country of southwest Virginia. Along this 34.3-mile drive, junctions lead to Konnarock and Whitetop Mountain, and SR 362 leads to Grayson Highlands State Park, which is near Mount Rogers and Whitetop Mountain. The drive ends at Volney.

The curves are mostly moderate, with three twisty stretches, and it is rated intense. Hurricane Helene badly damaged a 1.5-mile section between Damascus and Konnarock, which has been rebuilt.
