Grandfather Mountain – floweralley

We took a trip to Grandfather Mountain last week. I wanted to see the new Wilson Center.

We also wanted to see the animals in their habitat-mimicking enclosures.

There are Bald Eagles and cougars(not pictured). Also otters, elk and black bear.

We have a favorite picnic spot with a great view.

I took my eyes off my child for one second and look where I find him!

The Mile High Swinging Bridge is a big draw for Grandfather Mountain.

The twisting road up was the site of a scene in the Forrest Gump movie.

I hiked all over this mountain as a teenager. It requires grit. My dad was an avid hiker.

If you are craven some adventure, you may want to swing by Grandfather Mountain in North Carolina.

We spent a magical day with a fun friend on Grandfather Mountain.

Our picnic spot had a view of the whole world.

We then visited with a sweet bear who posed like a pro.

We spied a pair of otters napping.

This rescued Bald Eagle seems relaxed in its new home.

There were few elk resting among the trees.

The museum had a wildflower exhibit that was a work of art.

My favorite part was the mile-high swinging bridge.

I just love our mountains!
