Must See Spots - Craggy Gardens

The first day of spring - and we got a bit of a cold snap. Only about 54 degrees as we head out to Craggy Gardens on the Blue Ridge Parkway. By the time we reach the summit I believe the temp has dropped about 10 degrees and the clouds are rolling in over the peaks. We've set off down the trails with kids and dogs in tow - playing hide and seek in the rhododendron as we go. Not a great day for long range views, but a great way to start the spring hiking season. The trails are well maintained, and in the summer the fields are filled with blueberries. These images weren't taken today, but on a much clearer day in the summer.
