Rimrock and Milepost 3 Trails
Bodie in the mist on Rimrock trail
Looks like a seasonal stream area - just offtrail. One stream to the left, one to the right
The "view" from the overlook - not much to see today except clouds
The view of the "point" of the overlook on Mt Mitchell
The old helipad landing area

Heading back down the trail - a little overgrown
View from the east end of Rimrock - above the 5830 road - Cottomwood Meadows is down there if you could see it

Rockslide on MP3 trail
View from rockslide on MP3 trail
This is the blowdown mess where MP3 meets Rimrock. The MP3 trail is under the logs in the middle of the photo - and the big log in the foreground obliterated the view of the tread
This is the view from the MP3 trail to the Rimrock trail. You can see the Rimrock trail upper right of center - just to the right of the big tree. This is the mess of blowdown that is hiding the tread of the MP3 trail at the junction
You can see there used to be a sign on the tree to the right of center - I think this used to identify the MP3 trail
Closeup of the old MP3 trail sign "hole"
The junction is right where you see this 704 sign at a left turn in the trail (if you are headed east)
Balloon I found near the pond/marsh - I wonder who Marcos is?
Where I found the balloon - I took it home and threw it away to help clean up the woods
The marshy/wetlands area near the start of the trail - they are hard to see but there are yellow flowers in the water
