A little problem with the camera. Thank goodness for the phone ... Grandfather Mountain, one of the highest peaks in the Blue Ridge Mountain range (elevation 5,946 ft), is 70 miles from Asheville, just off the Blue Ridge Parkway. While it is not as tall as nearby Mt. Mitchell, it offers more rugged terrain and better vistas from its rocky summit. Grandfather Mountain is also a globally recognized nature preserve. Blue Ridge Mountains, North Carolina Thank you all for visiting and for your gracious and appreciated comments! I wish I could thank each of you personally. Have a great creative day!
