There is a picnic table here at the Thomas Divide View (Milepost 463.9 on the Blue Ridge Parkway) overlook, but the view is mostly blocked by overgrowth. If you are looking for somewhere to stop and take a break, this can be a good spot, but it doesn't offer the most fantastic view on the parkway.

Fantastic snack spot on hot summer days. Beautiful vegetation
