Blue Ridge Access can be from many points along the trail. Most popular are Amicalola Falls, and the lot on FS 42 just past the top of Springer Mountain (see this link for directions from Ellijay). There is no parking on 76(515) north of Cherry Log, however this is a fairly popular drop off (Blue Ridge).
