The AT crosses Vaught Branch several times. This is crossing 2 (counting from north to south). Many of these crossings are in rhododendron thickets.

mm 4.2 Vaught Branch Crossing 4 via culvert and road crossing of FS 644 - there is possible parking here on wide shoulders. However reports indicate that the road is closed at both ends by private landowners which is why this location is not listed as an AT access or parking area.
