I hiked Stone Mountain yesterday - oh what a fabulous day. The waterfall is a 200' drop (I think that is what I read). The loop was beautiful - I started up & across the 'stone', then dropped down through the forest, circled around then headed back up past the waterfalls. If you have the time Stone Mountain is a nice hike but be sure to head out early, to beat the crowds....
That pic with the carving is in Georgia. Luckily no one has defaced Stone Mountain NC like that.

Posted by CallMeDaveI've never been a big wildflower person, but this is the season for it here in Appalachia. Other people can identify every variety. I'm not there yet.
