Misadventures in Pisgah National Forest | Hiking in North Carolina (Part 2)

Amazing time doing this thru hike! Three days of being out in the woods with amazing views, trails, and some hectic weather. Spontaneous trail magic at a crucial climb helped us and two, one day thru hikers who were out of water. Camping out on Black Balsam Knob during 40mph winds and freezing temperatures really tested us and our gear. 10/10 will do again!

Very beautiful scenery on the Art Loeb trail on Black Balsam Knob. Rough Rocky hike but worth it all. You can park on road or further up in lot. We saw a lot of birds soaring on a windy day. There is another trail: Sam Knob trail that is more for family with younger children. We did see peeps pitching a few tents but not sure if permits needed. Enjoy🌞😌

Went middle of October on a weekday. It wasn't that crowded but this trail is narrow. We turned our backs to everyone and stepped off the trail. There were beautiful 360 degree views. The colors were pretty but a lot of the trees had lost their colorful leaves by then.

I don't go there for hiking, but to fish the Davidson River. Such a beautiful place, if I was dropped off there with no clue to what part of the country I was in, I would guess Northern New Hampshire or Northern Maine. (All fish were released unharmed)

We went for a short hike to just see the water falls. This location was great for outdoor activities for us. The only problem that we had was the bathroom was closed.
