A lot of people in the DMV are familiar with Peters Mill, but not Taskers Gap which is south east of Edinburg road near the parking area.

Had a chance to check it out yesterday, to get to it from the Edinburg Gap parking area make a right go down the hill a bit and make the right turn into the gravel road.

If you have done Peters Mill before, Taskers Gap will be more of the same but worth checking out if you have the time, you already paid for the day pass might as well do it.

However, it is mostly an ATV area so you will probably stay on the main trail marked with an orange V on the trees as all the other side routes get narrow quickly and are probably not suited for full size vehicles. If you do that, you will reach a point where all your options are narrow and it is safer/prudent to turn around and head out the way you came in.

You will probably be outnumbered by ATVs while on the trail, so be careful.

Trail Info & Maps: https://www.fs.usda.gov/recarea/gwj/recarea/?recid=73965

On the map it is shown as route 553 in orange dashes.

Terrain type: mostly dirt, some rocks.

Equipment needed: High clearance vehicle, 4x4 if it is wet. Front sway bars disconnected/airing down: optional.
