A parking area, still signed even without any vehicular traffic.
This is just north of the Gap in Kentucky. Micheal Vaughn sent me
more information: The old Tri-State Trail footpath leads up
to the Tri-State marker. This can be found under a simple roof
shelter and marks the point at which Kentucky, Tennessee and
Virginia come together. The Tri-State Trail will be the northern
terminus of the Cumberland Trail, now being constructed. See http://users.multipro.com/cumberlandtrail/
for more information. The TST parking area was the site of a mid-40's
roadhouse of some degree of ill-repute. Several deadly gunfights
broke out among the patrons of this establishment. (Image 15
