Drove up Route 151 today to the 5000 ft peak next to the much taller Pisgah. Actually got out of the truck and huffed 'n puffed my way up to a 'lookout'.
What's most impressive?
Is it the view? Naaah, just a mountain.
Is it the road that winds up switchback-after-switchback to the top? Unh-unh.
It's the Rhododendrons!!! After trees, the most plentiful vegetation on those mountains, just growing wild, 10 and fifteen feet tall in unending ranks.
Can't wait for May to see the blooms.
