Black Mountain

The greening of the mountains from Tanbark Ridge overlook, elevation 3175 feet, Blue Ridge Parkway, North Carolina. The road seen in upper left is the parkway as it continues northeast. Can you see the little houses, including my favorite, the red roofed one?

Now it looks pretty overgrown.

Now it belongs to Montreat College, though it was originally a private home.

The way the building looked probably in 1923, photo from this 2014 book...
