A couple months ago, I took a friend up to Rohrgbaugh Plains (Dolly Sods area) for the Perseid Meteor Shower. While there we met a group of two school teachers who took 6 teenage girls on their first BP trip. 5 days around Dolly Sods.
I was watching the clouds tearing across the ridge on the other side of Red Creek canyon when one of the group leaders walked into the photo. I stopped her right where she was, an after a conversation she actually posed for me! My favorite hiking picture of 2023

One of my favorite viewpoints in Dolly Sods. I've photographed it numerous times and will probably do so numerous times more.  |

One of my favorites too! My wife and I used to go there for the Perseid meteor shower almost yearly. It was one of the last places in the Sods she could hike to. That set of cliffs has no name. I call it 'Lorri's rocks' because we have so many memories there.

Great photo. I'm having trouble figuring out where it's at though I've likely been there.

I was thinking Rohrbaugh Plains but something seemed off to me. Thanks.

On the main midatlantichikes.com site, that location is referred to as “The Un-named Vista”. Mike, whose site this is, showed it to me originally.

Thank you I remember that's what they call it here. I've always called it Lori's rocks,
Because of all the years we came here for the perseid meteor showers before she couldn't hike anymore

By the way, Mike's pic on this website's banner was taken at the Un-named Vista.
