Grandfather Mountain

What better way to spend a mild fall weekend, then climbing around on Grandfather Mountain.  We took a long stretch of the Blue Ridge Parkway from Boon, NC to Linville, and spent an afternoon exploring the park.  Liam had absolutely no fear climbing on high ledges and the swinging bridge to get to the highest peaks.

Who cares if we are a mile above sea level???

It is just a swinging bridge!
