Dusk from atop Standing Indian Mountain, where I set up camp.

From the firetower atop Albert Mountain.

The monument on top of Wayah Bald was perfect for bouldering.

A view several miles north of Winding Stair Gap, where one can hitch into the Hiawassee-like town of Franklin, NC.

The original Cold Spring Shelter, built by the CCC in 1936. Looking at the shelter walls is like walking back in time -- boy scouts, hikers, and lovebirds had carved and written their initials and dates as far back as 1946.

With Chris "The Prof" and "Daddy Mention" above the Nantahala River. At the Nantahala Outdoor Center, I purchased some trekking poles and some Ben & Jerry's Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough -- both great investments.

The view from Stecoah Gap, which precedes an extremely steep climb up a shelter where we spent the night.
