Directions to TVA's Buffalo Mountain Wind Power Plant

See for Yourself

Junk Car in Mud Near TVA Wind Power Plant

There are at least three routes to the windmill wind power plant site. The conditions have varied a lot with weather and time. After road improvements for bringing in more windmills, the roads are improved, but after neglect for a while, the roads can be treacherous. After rain or snow, the roads can be muddy and slippery. You've been warned. Be very careful. I'd generally suggest taking a truck, but you might be able to get away with an average road car, depending on conditions and tolerance for abuse such as dragging bottom and slipping and sliding (or getting stuck). I'd suggest a 4-wheel truck to be safe, but check for yourself.

Thanks to the Windrock ATV Club, however, I now know a third route, which only goes part way to the windmills before it joins the "shorter" route. The third route passes close by several active gas wells.

One great improvement by the Windrock ATV Club (and/or Coal Creek Mining Company) is the signs marking roads and trails. Although not every intersection was marked, most were. Using Tommy Rhea's map and the road signs made it much easier to find the way.

Quote of the moment
Chapter 2 : do not steal

01  Beware of robbing a poor wretch,
02  of attacking a cripple.
03  Do not stretch out your hand to touch an old man,
04  nor {snatch (at) the word of} a great one.
05  Do not let yourself be sent on a wicked errand,
06  nor be friends with him who does it.
07  Do not raise an outcry against one who attacks You,
08  nor return him an answer yourself.

09  He who does evil, the shore rejects him,
10  its floodwater carries him away,
11  the north wind comes down to end his hour,
12  it mingles with the thunderstorm, (and)
13  the storm cloud is tall, the crocodiles are vicious.
14  You heated man, how are You now?
15  He cries out, his voice reaches heaven.
16  It is the Moon who declares his crime.
17  Steer, (so that) we may ferry the wicked (over),
18  (as) we do not act like his kind!
19  Lift him up, give him your hand,
20  commit him (in) the hands of the god.
21  Fill his belly with bread of your own,
22  that he be sated and see.

23  Another thing good in the heart of the god:
24  to pause before speaking.
~ The Instruction of Amenemope, Akhim, Egypt, ~1100 BC ~
