Fixture - Mount Sharon (Orange County)
Country is hilly, rolling with some steep areas on Jerdone Mountain.

Directions to fixture
From Orange, take Route 20 East. Go approximately five miles (past Orange Airport on left) and turn left on Mount Sharon Road (Route 600). Go to top of hill. Cross the cattle guard and park in the field on the left.

OR
From 522, going north or south, turn west onto Rt. 20 at Unionville; there is a BP station on one corner as a landmark. (Note: Going south, it is about 15 miles from Culpeper/Rt. 29 and going north from I-64, about 40 miles). Proceed west towards Orange for four miles. Turn right onto Mt. Sharon Rd. (Rt. 600) and go about 1.5-2 miles to the top of the hill. Turn left at the double red gates and cross the cattle guard to park in the field.

(Yes, really do go to the top of the hill. I believe you'll pass one cattle guard before that. And I think there are mailboxes near the driveway you want.)

From I-64, take either 522N to Unionville or 15N to Orange and follow above directions. From 29, take either 522S to Unionville or 15S to Orange and follow above directions.

Accommodations
The information about accommodations for the Northern area might be useful.
