Loft mtn up on the drive. 15 miles South of 33 once you get on the drive.

 

The drive.

 

Everyone was posting about the fireworks last nite. im a history buff of the Civil War. so much of it was around me. a battle field marker not more than a mile from the house. wifes in bed and I sat here with the sliding door open thinking this is what it sounded like here 150yrs ago.they would come from different direction and can imagine troops making flanking moves. I do it every year. Battle of the Piedmont. yea im kind of weird like that

 

been there many times. use to drive the parkway from Afton to Loft mtn. after 4-12 shift looking at deer. nice campground.

 

Tent caterpillars. Was that from when you were here last year and snubbed me and @dewayne ?

 

No fireworks inthe park of course but we could hear them going off on the West side and the East side of the mtn

 

SNP Blue Ridge Drive and Appalaching trail.

 

We have done Mathews Arm, Lewis Mtn, and now Loft mtn. The only one we have left is Big meadow. We're going to drive up and check it out before we make up our mind to go. Loft was very private but from what I understand Big Meadow is pretty much wide open

 

hell yea we dont forget shit like that

 

Nope. Somebody shoulda put his big girl pants on and made a stop to see us

 

yes its more wide open but you will see tons of good bucks in velvet and bears.

 

We have had does and fawns all around us



No bears yet and don't particularly care to see them. I see enough of them hunting. I just don't need one nosing around while we are camping

 

Did the thunder storms hit you all tonite. they rolled through about 18.0 heading East across the mtns.some heavy rain ,hail and thunder like crazy. we got @2in of rain

 

Friends of ours 10 minutes down the road got hammered we got nothing

 

Still looks quiet and not having to carry poop far is a plus

 

Oh you see all kinds of things and meet all kinds of folks. We have met some really cool and interesting people along with some idiots. I was glad we left today as there was a large group that came in across from us yeaterday evening, flopped up a small tent city, had a camp light as bright as a construction zone light, and had no idea what quiet time was about. I actually had to yell over at them a couple of times as they kept setting off their car alarms and locking and unlocking their vehicles. People don't understand you can do that quietly. I couldn't understand a thing they were saying

 

I love mine.. Looks awesome!
