LEFT: View from the lower outcrop of Craggy Pinnacle, North Carolina, with view of the Blue Ridge Parkway. From the photographer: " I have visited Craggy Pinnacle about a dozen times over the years but never had I taken the time to explore the one trail split near the summit. It brought me to this lower overlook that offered a more private view of the parkway during peak bloom season. I was like a kid in a candy store!

The moss-covered rock, clear, rushing streams and vibrant green colors never disappoint!
