Description
A spur trail off of the Appalachian Trail in the Roan Highlands along the state borders of Tennessee and North Carolina brings hikers to a wonderful view of the Southern Appalachian mountains of Western North Carolina. In the month of June, this area is well known for its abundant wild Catawba Rhododendron blooms, a magenta/purplish color that decorates almost entire mountainsides with their colorful vibrance. If one were to peer into the distance of this photograph, the peaks of Tablerock and Hawksbill Mountains in the Linville Gorge Wilderness Area could be seen.
