At this point I had gotten an upset stomach and didn't feel like hanging around too much and ended up just taking some photos and strolling back to my car as the clouds gathered again and it started snowing. Back on the Kistler Highway, I saw a few wild turkeys and decided that my next, and last stop of the day would be the always fun Wiseman's View farther down the gorge.
I'll cover that tomorrow...
There were once a lot of grand old hemlocks in the gorge. Now they're all dead, except for a very few that the National Park Service has treated against the hwa infestation. Here is one fairly large one that is recovering after being treated.
The top section of Linville Falls.

Fun place to jump from, wot?
Yep. I'll never forget those insane morons jumping the 100 feet into the pool. Seems I've posted about them before--The Linville Fools. Have to do a search.
