Brush Mountain Sunset - a photo on Flickriver

            A closeup of Brush Mountain's ridges in the most concentrated area of color. Shot from Glade Road Growing.

"The Brush Mountain Wilderness is an area protected by Act of Congress (Eastern Wilderness Act) to maintain its present, natural condition. As part of the wilderness system, it helps to preserve a variety of natural life forms and contributes to a diversity of plant and animal gene pools. The wilderness is adjacent to Brush Mountain East Wilderness.

Although it is located next to the suburbs of Blacksburg, Virginia, Brush Mountain is unexpectedly secluded. The area looks out to the northwest across Craig Creek to the slopes of Sinking Creek Mountain.

The area is part of the Craig Creek Cluster.

The wilderness lies north of and in close proximity to Blacksburg, Virginia. It extends for about 8 miles along the northwest slope of Brush Mountain, bounded to the east by a power line, to the northwest by Craig Creek and private property, and to the southeast by Forest road 188.1 along the crest of the mountain. There are no trails in the area.

Good access is gained from Craig Creek Rd. (Va 621) which follows Craig Creek with several pullouts for parking. Access roads are shown on National Geographic-Trails Illustrated Map #787 (Blacksburg-New River Valley)." (Wikipedia).
