Two miles past the Cow Cove turnout, I pass a second trail to Cow Cove, then a mile later, I spot this road to Button Mountain

The little-used road to Button Mountain looks promising for finding a secluded spot, but I decide to continue on the main road in case there's an obvious nice campsite in the area that I haven't stumbled upon yet.
