Crabtree Falls, Blue Ridge Parkway, North Carolina

This afternoon, we drove up to the Blue Ridge Parkway and hiked down to Crabtree Falls. The guide said, "a strenuous 2.5 mile hike." We couldn't find the strenuos part. This was the first trail down here that was as rocky as the AT in PA, but otherwise it reminded us of the "moderate with steep sections" trails near Mohican Outdoor Center.

Crabtree Falls is very striking. Here's a photo of Kathy and the falls.

    Behind the scene report - Dave had to climb over fallen trees, rock hop on slippery stream rocks and clear away fallen branches to work his way out to the middle of the stream in order to get the shot he wanted - an artist at work. Of course, the whole time I am standing on the bridge worrying to myself - please don't fall in the stream, please don't fall in the stream. :)
