Chimney Rock, all I can say is I DID IT!!!!! It is over 400 steps to the top of chimney rock, then an additional 300 plus to the top of the mountain and I climbed every one of them. As you can see NC is an absolutely beautiful state. The mountains, rivers, trees, and it was all so green and the weather was perfect. Too early for the trees to change colors, but maybe we will just have to go back and see it again sometime.
