This a live view looking west from a the top of Hibriten Mtn,  must view during daylight hours.  The Grandfather Mtn is in the distance, resembles a mans head, with a beard laying on his back.  http://www.resortcams.com/webcams/hibriten-mountain-west/.

Lou, in the distance about the center of the scan, last mountain in view, has a suspension foot bridge that is advertised as a mile high swinging bridge (about a mile above sea level) tourist attraction.  The last section of the Blue Ridge Parkway was held up by the owner of Grandfather Mtn for environmental reasons, finally comprised by constructing a via duct bridge around part of mountain.

Beautiful view!  I had to chuckle when I read about the altitude, 2100 feet above sea level, I live at 5,300' and 8 miles west of me the hills are 9,000', 18 miles west they are 14,000.  Still, all those deciduous trees sure are pretty, ours are mostly pines with a few patches of aspen.

I am just on the other side waving at ya, see me? Don't know why but I never been around that area much. Go thru Boone and Blowing Rock a lot tho. Remind us of that camera when the leaves start changing.
Allis Chalmers still exist in my mind and barns

Got a friend that has a house on one of the hills near Boone. Think he has been up there most of the summer. Love that part of the country up there, especially the cooler weather this time of year.
Just an old country boy saved by the grace of God.
