Charlie's Bunion Trail

We hiked from the Newfound Gap parking lot at the North Carolina/Tennessee border along the Charlie's Bunion trail (4 miles there and 4 miles back). It was one of the most intense hikes I’ve ever done but it was spectacular. The trail was either going up or down, and we walked through streams and what looked like fairytale lands. When we got to the peak and took a pose, I made the mistake of looking behind me… yikes, what a drop off!
