Spending time at the Rock. After a bit of trailblazing, circling around, Heide busting her arse and much cussing from the troops we arrived at this sweet spot in the middle of large stream, complete with cascading waterfalls. The area is in the vacinity of Black Balsam mountain, in Western North Carolina, bordering the Shining Rock Wilderness Area. The whole area is stranded somewhere between 5000 and 5900 feet in elevation. Dragging beer in here can be a bitch, but with this crew we had no choice.
From left to right, Harold "Jimmy Harrell," Heide, Myself (David), Amie and Ric.
Looking up from the rock, we see Ric, Harold and Heide.
From their vantage point, we see me and Amie Backstroke, the first to forge ahead and scale the rock.
