Pilot Mountain

Drove to Pilot Mountain north of Winston Salem (about 1.5hrs from Carrboro) to do some hiking and take some pictures.

Sorry to see you took down the photo galleries. I found the Pilot Mountain photos I was looking for, but they are no longer hi res enough to use as my desktop background. I know why you did it and don’t blame you. Nice blog though.

Marty, if you want a high res version, just shoot me an email.

I sent you a message. Thanks a lot!
