Atop Chimney Rock

A weekend getaway took us to Chimney Rock Park, located near Lake Lure, North Carolina. This is the view from atop Chimney Rock, a 315 foot monolith at the edge of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Once you're on top, the elevation is nearly 2,300 feet...spectacular!


Linda's not a big fan of heights, but she braced up for a photo near the edge!


A lone scrappy pine clings to the rock


The view over our left shoulder.

We could hear the cries of peregrine falcons, who were nesting on this site.
