Came across this map and website. The Claw of the Dragon is in the same area as the Back of the Dragon. Another Bucket List item.

Willville Motorcycycle Camp http://www.willvillebikecamp.com/ in Meadows of Dan, Va, just off the BRP is a good base camp for riding the claw, Rt 'Sweet' 16 and other fine roads.

Ride safe/ be safe!

If you're in the area, Burke's Garden is a must do.

Agreed! two ways to get in, the long way around to the North entrance on pavement via Highway 61 then up Rt 623 OR take the Sothern entrance on a twisty D&G switchback off Highway 42 up Rt 623 from the South.
