    New avi /new home... same old me

    Hendersonville NC area.... anyone 'round?

    Da elfLiza and I will be moving into our new home up above Columbus NC [on Tryon Peak/Skyuka/White Mt.] next week.
    Looking forward to using the whole western NC mountains as a playground for my second [third?... fourth?] childhood.

    I’m in Charlotte... love the mountains in that area. Jealous of your short ‘commute’ to them.

    Thanks Slugger.

    Flash - The John Rock hang is practically in your backyard

    Panthertown valley is just past Brevard - wonderful waterfalls. Good to have a GPS or app cause it isn’t well marked. Ran into a bear last year.

    Shining Rock - love it. Or lessor visited Flat Laurel creek or Middle Prong Wilderness.

    Mountains-To-Sea trail - I did most of the mountain section last year. Lots of nice places and about 95% less traffic than the AT (though the parkway isn’t ever too far away).

    Linville Gorge - easy access to Wolf Pit trailhead and up Shortoff mountain. Or the west side.

    Well... I could go on. Wish I was up there now.

    Used to spend time up in the Asheville/Hendersonville area when I was in the SC Upstate. Gorgeous area with a lot of outdoors stuff to do. Lots of history, too. You will have no problem finding things to do around there. If you find yourself in Asheville and you like BBQ, try 12 Bones. If I was in town, I tried to make it there.
    Oooh, shiney! What does THIS button do?
