From the winery, go north on U.S. 51 to Shelby. (It is
2.5 miles from Micro Blvd to Shelby.) If you
like, at the intersection of Shelby and U.S. 51, set your trip odometer to zero.
From here on, you will see lots of brown "State Park" signs with arrows along
the way. However, the signs are not at all intersections, the roads change
names, and it can be a little confusing. Here is what you need to do:
