I've seen those pictures before, but I don't think I've told how much I like them. This is my favourite http://www.robertstech.com/temp/feature/d601782.html

One of the great advantages of Grandfather Mountain is the variety of photo locations available to people with widely varying abilities and levels of fitness. There are a huge number of great photo spots just a few steps away from a parking spot for your car. Many others just a short (100 meters or so) away from parking areas (and on good trails), as well as places where you have to undertake a couple of hours if hiking over *tough* terrain. There's something for every ability. Here's one taken while standing *in* the parking lot at the top: http://www.robertstech.com/pages/gfm_11.htm This one is from just past the swinging bridge and less than 200m from the parking lot: http://www.robertstech.com/pages/gfm_01.htm This one requires a tough hour-long hike (and (*no* fear of heights!): http://www.robertstech.com/pages/gfm_21.htm This one requires an overnight camp-out on the trail: http://www.robertstech.com/temp/feature/d601782.html >I am not in the best of shape but can walk for upwards of an hour or so as >long as I take it slow.
