Downstream from the Falls345 viewsBy this time, there was almost NO light at all, but my trusty Nikon D100 captured this scene quite well with available light.Jul 31, 2004

Another View of Dry Falls383 viewsThe light was really low, so it is a good thing that my Nikon D100 has a fairly sensitive CCD.Jul 31, 2004

Barb Lives Dangerously660 viewsNot ME--no way! Well, I've been on those rock outcroppings before, but I definitely wasn't too comfortable. There's a several hundred foot drop on three sides. Barb was energized--"replenished," as she'd say. (Too bad I forgot to bring the flash and she's in the late afternoon shadows.) This is in an area of Wiseman's View that is fenced off so you can't go there.Jul 31, 2004

Dry Falls606 viewsIt was approaching sunset as Barb and I tooled through Western North Carolina around Cashiers on a windy, narrow road. We saw a sign that said something about a waterfall, and we decided to stop there for a looksee. Jul 31, 2004

Hawksbill Mountain631 viewsViewed from across the gorge, Hawksbill Mountain (seen here) is adjacent to Table Rock Mountain. I suppose that if you look closely, you can see what resembles a hawk's bill.Jul 31, 2004

A Lookout at Wiseman's View801 viewsA very serene place on an autumn day. The man pictured at the pulpit worked here many years ago. Thus, he had some interesting stories about the gorge.Jul 31, 2004

Table Rock Mountain729 viewsViewed from across the gorge, Table Rock Mountain makes its presence and the reason for its name obvious. It is a favorite among rock climbers because of its sheer granite faces.Jul 31, 2004

Wiseman's View679 viewsOn the other side of Linville Gorge from Linville Falls, Wiseman's View gives you an eagle's eye view of the gorge and the mountains.Jul 31, 2004
