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?

I've copied some of these photos below so you can see them in more detail.









The Andrews Geyser is still there, not with the hotel however. It is gravity fed, by a switch that opens a gate for the stream to go through from a higher elevation.
