you can make a dedicated post to share those if you like, and give some back story.Oh yes. Been hiking on Grandfather Mntn. many times. If it wouldn't hijack the thread, I'd show you lots of pictures from up there. I'll post them once in awhile over in the Pic of the Day thread. I have posted a few of them already. The bear sitting on his haunches, Lake Price, and todays panorama. My wife and I hiked Grandfather Mntn for the first time when my 19 year old was in her belly. Been our favorite family get away ever since. White water rafting, hiking and Mntn climbing, and caving. So much fun stuff to do up there. I grew up in the Upper Appalachian Plateau. We love the mountains and that is where my wife and I will have our ashes spread.
