How to get there
To reach the site from the town of Blacksburg, VA, take Mainstreet to Mount Tabor Road, Route 624. Travel 12 miles past Route 650, then take a left turn onto a gravel road (FSP 188.1). Travel for 1.8 miles and take a right turn at the top of Brush Mountain. Continue 1.6 Miles to the parking lot gate.
You will come to a parking lot. From here, you will have to hike about 7/10's of a mile to the memorial. After leaving the parking lot and entering the trail, you need to take the left path at the fork. After hiking less than a mile, you will arrive at the marker.
On November 10, 2018, groups from the Christiansburg Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 5311, American Legion Post 59, Civil Air Patrol, Daughters of the American Revolution, Torch Club of Roanoke Valley and the Roanoke Appalachian Trail Club participated in a hiking event to travel up Brush Mountain to the memorial site in honoring Audie Murphy.
