The Blue Ridge Parkway is not very far from where I grew up. Coming back here was a great experience. I had planned to meet my pal Tucker and we were going to ride motorcycles. When we found out he had to work, it was too late to get another travel pal - so I decided to keep my reservations, and visit Mt. Mitchell(NC), Mt. Rogers(VA), and Black Mt(KY)
As you can see, this is a popular site. There is a snack bar at the trailhead, however, if you're smart, you'll have stopped to eat at the restaurant near the park entrance. The rainbow trout was delicious, and the service was great. Keep in mind, the restaurant isn't open year round, so be sure to do this trip in the summertime!
This is a view of the trail. It is an extremely easy walk.
This is a view of the tower from below.
This one was taken from the base of the tower.
And of course, what is a highpoint trip without the obligatory pose at the top!
See you on the next mountain.
