211 Work Will Spare Marker

Buffalo once roamed the route now known as N.C. 211, where bulldozers are clearing a swath of land to accommodate a highway widening project. An old concrete monument near the main entrance of Pinewild Country Club informs the curious that N.C. 211 was once the Yadkin Trail, an ancient cartway carved out by Native Americans and later traveled by Colonial Americans.
