After our drive to Ash-vegas, my friend drove out of the way to take me on a short little hike. He kept saying we were going to hike above tree line which was very confusing to me because everywhere I looked, it was still green. I guess they define above tree line as literally no more trees, although it's still green.
Anyways, it was gorgeous. We hiked a bit of the Appalachian Trail and I believe from the top, looking one way we saw North Carolina, and looking the other way we saw Tennessee with Virginia way off in the distance.
We passed these people on the hike and when I turned around, I noticed the lighting was super cool. I snapped this picture of them then when we passed them again, I told them that in the least creepy way possible they looked really cool. I hope I made their day because they got so excited they starting spitting their phone number at me so I could text it to them. It is a pretty cool picture though.
I also noticed this moss on the rocks...this is unfamiliar to my hiking experiences in the great Rockies.
Needless to say, this little hike made me wish I could afford 5 months away from life to hike the whole trail from Maine to Georgia. One can dream right? Maybe a bucket list item.
But just to make sure it's clear where my allegiance lies, here's this little bit for ya.
All in all, it was a great little get away and I really enjoyed getting to catch up with my friend and see my old house. I never imagined it would be a comfort, but I guess life has a funny way of doing things.
