East Coast NC Camping, Birding, Parks, and Places to Explore
I travel from the middle of North Carolina to explore the east coast in the middle of winter when the migratory birds are here. I stop for barbecue and to explore state and national parks for future trips. I find trails and preserves to hike. I visit towns with craft breweries and restaurants to enjoy. I push on through the cold, wind, rain, and snow but enjoy some fair weather as well. If you're prepared, winter travel can be more fun and with less crowds!

    Just moved to West Jefferson one month before Helene took out part of my house. It was rough but I was fortunate compared to so many others that lost much more. West Jefferson is my favorite town and nothing will change that. Thank you for the wonderful video. Mountain strong!

      I have friends who live there and still get up there 2-3 times a year. The surrounding towns along the river were devastated. My friends did not want to go see them, they would be heart broken to see the damage first hand. Thanks for watching. I hope your repairs are coming along OK. I have videos of Asheville and Hot Springs pre flood. I was lucky to see them before the storm.

    I traveled the entire Trace last year and hit every single stop and campground along the way. It took me about 5 days to it all; I was in no hurry. I video documented the trip for posterity. Trace is a French term for a line created by footprints or animal tracks. Next year, I plan to do the Blue Ridge Parkway. I'm not sure if I'll hit every stop like I did on the Trace. 200+ overlooks is a bit much.

Occasionally their were road closures. but spring bison calving and fall elk bugling were special and fewer "tourons" around on shoulder seasons took sooooo many different routes i can't remember them all. through Missoula and Darby and over through the Little Belts and down though Helena and Three Forks through Livingston through Red Lodge through Deer Lodge the interstate - of course through Big Hole not a bad trip any way you go.

    I remember those trains from when I was a kid seeing them at the museums fair park location. its disappointing they tore out the museum and just turned it into a parking lot. hopefully this means they will get more rollingstock. I must attribute some part of my journey to actually working on the railroad to my dad taking me to the museum as a kid. it looks like they brought the railway express building as well. any idea if they brought over the calliope? I enjoyed listening to its unique sounds.
