Arriving at Black Horse Gap - June 12, 2009 @ 10:52 CST.  Black Horse Gap is the A.T.'s
southernmost encounter with the Blue Ridge Parkway (BRP).  The A.T. parallels BRP, and later
Skyline Drive, for approximately 200 miles.  Much of the original A.T. route along the Blue Ridge
south of Roanoke was displaced by the parkway when it was built.
