magicmomma > The path to Hooper Bald is a mere 1/4 mile and it is a barely perceptible grade.   Even on a hot day the path is shaded the entire way to the bald. The forest here is very pretty.  The path here is dotted with a few flame azaleas on the way and the white flowers areTassel Rue.

I knew the foliage was pretty, but I'd never seen them in bloom until today!
Look at this beauty? It comes in white and purple.. very exotic and regal.
