Fork Mountain Trail (#109)

I cannot even begin to describe the magnitude of what you are seeing here. Over 1,500-feet below is the floor of the West Fork Pigeon River Gorge...while rising a half-mile above it on either side, Sam Knob and Fork Ridge never look more massive. I've seen a lot of incredible views in the North Carolina Mountains...few have stunned me more than this one...
