One of my early favourites in North Carolina: a fall scene with leaves strewn all over the paths in the forests of Linville Falls. Blue Ridge Mountains fall color, 2007.

To get to this vantage point requires a one mile trek through the Linville Falls forest. I'd never hiked alone through the North Carolina foothills before, and I wasn't sure whether I'd run into any of the bears that roam this area., NC. 2015

Linville Falls

This view of Linville Falls was taken from the first of the elevated vantage points, maybe 0.75 to 1.0 miles from the visitors center. A reasonable work out with a bunch of camera gear. Blue Ridge Mountains, 2015.
