Joe, Charlotte is 90 miles, Asheville is a little bit further. Roanoke and even Atlanta may be on the route in for some folks. Pick a cheap place to fly into and get a ride with somebody the rest of the way. If you camp on the mountain, expenses are what you eat and drink. There is normally no camping there, only a picnic grove with some restrooms. If you want a shower, you're out of luck or you get a motel room in town (15 min. away). You will want to buy a barbeque sandwich at the cafeteria (ask Frank). It is often wet and cool temps. You can only guard the beer if you pledge sobriety. Regards, Bob S.
