Waterrock Knob Trail is an amazing hike off the Blue Ridge Parkway near its southern end at Cherokee, NC. The trail is at a high elevation of 5,820 feet, the Parkway’s highest vistor center, and offers hikers spectacular views across the Appalachian Mountains.
When I was 13 years old, I was lucky to travel with family to visit Grand Canyon National Park. I rode a mule on Bright Angel Trail, which drops off (quite literally) from the edge of the National Park area there at the South Rim.
This past spring, my daughter and son-in-law hiked that very same trail. Their photos brought back some wonderful memories! I painted the end of a mule train that they followed on their hike back up to the rim.
