Getting there
Go to the Linville Post Office (practically the only building in town, there is only 1 stoplight in town) ask anyone how to get to Edgemont and it is right at the ranger station. It is way to complicated to explain the directions.

    Brian... Linville Hillbillies???? Come on now! I can guarantee you that anyone living in that area knows exactly where Edgemont is... if your demeanor when asking them directions was anything like you come off on here I'm sure they simply decided to play ignorant. Remember these are illegal trails... some "hillbillies" don't take too kindly to city slickers driving up for the day and riding in their beautiful, remote area. As for the trails, I've never ridden them but have hiked all over that area. I can only imagine the ride would be great!

    Actually, no one has got the spelling correct yet. It is Raider Camp Trail and Harpers Creek Trail. Both trails are also illegal to mtn bike. Mtn Biking is currently illegal in both the Harpers Creek Wilderness Study Area and Lost Cove Wilderness Study Area. Please understand that you may ride these trails, but you face arrest and an appearance in Federal court if you are caught doing so. The IMBA (International Mountain Bikers Association) has issued a removal request of the Harpers Creek area from IMBA approved websites. The U.S.F.S. has already declared these trails as illegal. I'm not going to detain you or even bother you if you ride these trails, but please understand when you ride Raider/Harpers, you are breaking federal law. Ride at your own risk.
