Skyline Drive was a huge disappointment to us this year. Many, if not most, overlooks are grown up and all you can see is trees. Most of the views are from sections of road where you canโt stop so the driver doesnโt get to see anything. Had we had to pay the admission, Iโd have been very unhappy. We drove about halfway and bailed out on the park and didnโt go back. The park is great if you are a hiker, but the drive is not even worth mentioning. The overlooks on I64 south of the park are much more impressive.
The BRP is closed at 114.7 with a lengthy detour, but if you plan to camp along the route you can easily work around it. The views along the BRP arenโt what they used to be, but still much better than Skyline Drive.
