mm 4.9 Junction with the Trail Boss Trail, a now blue-blazed
route that was once the AT. The southbound AT follows an old road to this
point, then goes left on a footpath.  The Trail Boss Trail continues
straight ahead  initially on the old road. In 2 miles it reaches VA 615
about a hundred yards north of where the southbound AT meets that road.
