Pinnacles and Jewell Hollow Overlook
Today I’m continuing my picture story of my first fall foliage trip of the season. I entered Skyline Drive at Thornton Gap and drove south to the highest point of the drive at Skyland. I’m doing several posts on this short journey because I took so many pictures, and my eyes still tire easily when I’m working on the computer.
Pinnacles is the name of both an overlook and a picnic area. They’re a mile and a half apart, and between the two is the spectacular Jewell Hollow Overlook.
I like to drive through the park’s picnic areas even when I don’t have a picnic because there’s a chance of seeing wildlife. I didn’t see any large animals this time, but I did walk around and take a few pictures.

I love that reflection!
ReplyDeleteIf I lived locally I’d make a fine picnic for both of us if you agreed to take me along, Linda. And we’d enjoy the wildlife together!

ReplyDeleteYour fall foliage trip is absolutely delightful! Entering Skyline Drive at Thornton Gap and making your way to Skyland must have offered some breathtaking views. It’s great that you’re sharing multiple posts to capture all the beauty you experienced, especially since you have so many photos to go through.
