Bring on the colors!! I was super excited to see the vibrancy of the yellows along Boone Fork Creek. Despite what many are calling a sub-par color show this season, Boone Fork Creek never lets me down! After an uneventful sunrise behind low hanging clouds seen atop Rough Ridge, I hiked back down, jumped in the truck, and motored to an access point where I could hike the creek bed of Boone Fork. I could have literally spent several days photographing just this little stretch--really incredible! I would highly recommend a short walk alongside Boone Fork if you're going to be in the Grandfather Mountain area this coming weekend...
