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?

Crossing the Mountains to Sea Trail

This is about as close as I'll get to this thousand mile trail.

 Apparently it comes up Mount Pisgah!

Looking north (other direction along the Blue Ridge Parkway) as we left Mount Pisgah.

Cathy used to go on this trail where it crosses the Blue Ridge Parkway in Asheville.  I couldn't stop and take a photo there, it's near the US-74 exit though.

And I have also seen it on Mt. Mitchell ( tallest mountain east of the Mississippi) as I climbed the path up to the top viewing platform.  Here's my photo that I took of it, many months ago!



OK I "duck duck go'd" it, the Mountains to Sea trail is 1140 miles from end to end.  Here's their site.
