On October 18, 2006, David and I took a hike to Flint Rock. This viewpoint overlooks the South Holston Lake, and is really pretty in the fall. The hike is fairly flat and well worth the effort.
I was happy in the immediate presence of nature in its most staggering grandeur, in living intimately with something so splendidly immense that all life seemed trivial in its presence. - Robert Marshall Alaska Wilderness
