Grayson Highlands

The Grayson Highlands were rugged, lush and spectacular, although we felt the trails were a bit overused and deteriorating somewhat. This is a very popular area and might show the effects of being over-loved.



The wild roaming ponies were certainly a highlight of this section.



We've never been to Scotland, but couldn't help wondering if this is what it feels like over there. After all, the Appalachian Mountains actually continue in Scotland, although divided by the Atlantic.
