Hi can you tell me how much higher it is from the sugar mountain tubing site? I’m kind of scare it be too much for me. Thanks for your input, family is going tomorrow
@@pamelasharp4766 thx but i was a sugar mountain tubing section which my daughter says is lower then where you actually go skiing. Up to this height n road to here was good, a lil scared, heard someone said it’s was a steep road n narrow. Thanks for answering so quickly 👍
@@michellejohnson1035 I've gotten too old to hike but I know on Grandfather Mountain they have several different grades of trails. Google best hikes in NC and you will definitely find a list. Good luck and stay safe!
Oh my goodness you all scared me to death getting so close to the edge on those rocks. Thanks for this absolutely beautiful trip. I definitely want to go in the Spring. Thanks for sharing this.
What a beautiful crystal blue day. I love those. It makes me want to find a quiet mountaintop and just sit there alone for a couple hours and contemplate serenity.
So Will which of you and Dawn is older? You have us curious if Dawn is a cougar Grandfather Mountain looks fun. Just not sure if I would ever look over.
Very interesting and beautiful Grandfather Mt. Will you must really be sure footed to walk out in those edges....I’m more the Dawn type and would do the butt slide! 😂
When you walked into the gift shop and showed that picture of those old cars it brought back so many memories of days and trips their with my my grandparents. I bet you never thought taking that picture would make someone's day so much brighter..
I would like to have seen Grandfather Mountain when we drove on the Parkway. We drove the Parkway several times. I would have loved to have crossed the bridge. The views that you saw were gorgeous. The CD that you got gave great information on the route up to the top of the mountain. I can imagine the mountain is spectacular in the spring and summer when the flowers are in bloom. I kept thinking that you were going to fall off the mountain with all of the peaks that you walk on, LOL. Fantastic video, Will. Say HELLO for me to SMV. His videos are great, too. 🙂😉
I've never been to Grandfather Mountain so thanks for taking us there. I would only be able to walk across the bridge. As I have gotten older I no longer take scary risks such as climbing on the rocks with the scary drop offs. What a view that would be in the fall in peak color. The area is probably packed with people then. Good job getting up and down those cliffs!
What a nice video! You do such a great job capturing the beauty. Love your humor and take on things. Keep up the great work. You have no idea how it makes my day when I see one of your notifications pop up. 😀thanks so much
Absolutely stunning views, a friend of mine has talked about Grandfather Mountain several times, I will definitely send him a link to this video. Don't know if I could go to the cliff edge, I'm okay with heights as long as there is railing around the edge.
Will & Dawn, what a beautiful mountain view and scenery! Hello Smokey Mountain Hiker! Will, y'all are brave, I'm afraid of heights. I was shaking just watching y'all. Really enjoyed your video.
Hi there, another wonderful video. Thanks for sharing! On another note… did anyone notice on minute 10:43 the couple behind Dawn? They were taking a picture and the baby started to run towards the cliff!!! That scared me more than you guys getting close to the edge.
One other place I think you would like is Mount Airy, NC. It is the town that Andy Griffith was born and raised in. It is what he based the Mayberry town on for the Andy Griffith show. It is like stepping back into the old tv show.
Good morning Will and Dawn 🌞 Grandfather Mountain is such a beautiful place. That bridge is so scary 😳 I wished the animals weren't hiding. Great video, God bless youns and have a great day!
Great video. The wind is always crazy on that mountain. When we flew from Greenville, TN in a Cessna, I remember some type of advisory about the up drafts over those mountains. You were brave getting on those rocks but the view was fantastic. Thanks for another great time.
This video gave me happy tears! My grandparents loved Grandfather Mtn. Back many years ago there is a photo of them on the bridge and it swayed a lot back then! Grandpa made sure of it! He passed 13 yrs ago today.😍
I went there last year with my parents. I have a wonderful time. Went with a tour guide and she drove us up there. Love the swinging bridge and it was high. Love to go back there again soon.
What a beautiful and scary vlog those heights had me shakeing haveing SMH as a guest star was a bonus thanks for takeing us along would love to see sometime
I wish you would also go to Chimney Rock park not far from Asheville. It is a beautiful spot and Lake Lure, which is next to it is where they filmed Dirty Dancing. You can take a pontoon boat ride on the lake and it is fabulous.
I don't blame Dawn at all I spent 20 years climbing the old TV and Microwave towers you would see around big citys adjusting the antennas. And now I can't even get up on the roof of a 1 story rancher
Awesome views so beautiful in the mountains thanks for taking us along on the adventure tell Dawn She’s right getting old ain’t no fun LOL hope you guys are doing well
I remember going across that with my mom, and my grandma ,and my sister and my baby brother. I remember they were scared to death, I guess I was too dumb, or too young to be scared. My sister and I made it across ,my grandma my mom and brother did not. Good memories .my mother dreamed of that road going up that mountain, for years and years
I loved Grandfather Mountain. They still have Mildred & cubs, the Eagle, the cougar. Neat! It was awesome coming up 421(?) in the fall seeing the blanket of gold. That whole mountainside was golden colored. Do they still have the bagpipers at the Scottish festivals? Do they still have the hang-gliders? Did they still have their theater inside? Then we ventured to Blowing Rock. Boone was really an exciting place to visit. We enjoyed several areas of the Parkway as well near here. Really beautiful scenery. Had no idea Forest Gump ran that curve.
Wow you picked a very beautiful day to go up there,, its very beautiful.. the other vlog i had seen from someone else being up there,, was very foggy that day,, but i thought it was still very beautiful.. 😎👍,,, thank you for sharing
Wow such beauty. God's beautiful handywork is so amazing. Y'all are brave for climbing up there .Thank you for taking time to do adventures such as this and taking us along with you. You are great.
We were there about 35 years ago and it was so beautiful !! I couldn’t go across the bridge because of my fear of heights, but the rest of my family did. It was so foggy you couldn’t see the end of the bridge. You can understand why they call those mountains the Blue Ridge Mountains ! They really look blue in the distance. Thank you for this video !
Wow this bridge reminds me of what it’s like to trust Jesus, it’s scary, but worth it! Seems shaky and uncontrollable but He’s completely HARNESSED. And the walk with Him is risky but beautiful and breathtaking 😭👏 Dont get distracted by the winds, or look down... just focus on walking and making it across and you will be fine 😭👏 The reward at the end will be totally worth it. 😌😌😭❤️✨
You definitely need to go when the leaves are peak..it is absolutely gorgeous!! I can see Grandfather from my house❤😀🍁🐻🍂🌲
Hi can you tell me how much higher it is from the sugar mountain tubing site? I’m kind of scare it be too much for me. Thanks for your input, family is going tomorrow
@@xensan379 I believe Sugar Mountain is higher than Grandfather. I know the bridge at Grandfather is a mile high. Hope this helps🙂

Pam, we re visiting the last week of March this year. Any suggestions on great hikes in the area? We will have our labrador too
@@michellejohnson1035 I've gotten too old to hike but I know on Grandfather Mountain they have several different grades of trails. Google best hikes in NC and you will definitely find a list. Good luck and stay safe!
Great vlog. I could walk across the bridge, but you guys scared me on the rocks. Thanks for letting us tag along.
I live in Sparta NC. They have actually clocked winds over 100 mph on that bridge. Glad you came to my neck of the woods. I love visiting yours!!😊
Oh my goodness you all scared me to death getting so close to the edge on those rocks. Thanks for this absolutely beautiful trip. I definitely want to go in the Spring. Thanks for sharing this.
What a beautiful crystal blue day. I love those. It makes me want to find a quiet mountaintop and just sit there alone for a couple hours and contemplate serenity.
Wow! that place is pretty neat. I believe I like their bridge better than the Gatlinburg one.
When you walked out onto that outcroping near the edge at @17 min I hope you had your life insurance paid up! Lol :)
So Will which of you and Dawn is older? You have us curious if Dawn is a cougar Grandfather Mountain looks fun. Just not sure if I would ever look over.
Dawns five years older
Very interesting and beautiful Grandfather Mt. Will you must really be sure footed to walk out in those edges....I’m more the Dawn type and would do the butt slide! 😂
Very nice video,hope to visit Grandfather mountain

Nope, heights. Just no. Your video is the bravest I will get.

When the mcnasties keep me in I can still go along on rides with you guys! Thanks!
😊
That over the edge shot made my knees weak!
Me too!!
Yes. Me too.
What a nice video! You do such a great job capturing the beauty. Love your humor and take on things. Keep up the great work. You have no idea how it makes my day when I see one of your notifications pop up. 😀thanks so much
I've been to some breath taking places, and this area is always top of the list
Absolutely stunning views, a friend of mine has talked about Grandfather Mountain several times, I will definitely send him a link to this video. Don't know if I could go to the cliff edge, I'm okay with heights as long as there is railing around the edge.
No railings..I crawled lol!!
The mountains are gorgeous! You made me nervous when you got to the edge. I hate heights. Thank you for the views.
You guys were getting scary close to the edge ,I was scared for you
Will & Dawn, what a beautiful mountain view and scenery! Hello Smokey Mountain Hiker! Will, y'all are brave, I'm afraid of heights. I was shaking just watching y'all. Really enjoyed your video.
Always enjoy the climate change going up the mountain. You should also try Mt Mitchell. A beautiful drive going up.
Another wonderful video! Thanks for taking us with you! Tell SMH I said hello! Keep up the great work and awesome adventures!
Love, James @ATP
glad y'all enjoyed grandfather mtn.the wife and I along with a another couple rode our Harleys up there about 7 years ago.memories to last a lifetime.
Thanks for sharing
Tom hanks brother does the voice for woody in the video games and some of the short cartoons, too.
Thanks for sharing
BEAUTIFUL! Absolutely gorgeous. Thanks for taking us along on your trip, very much appreciated.
Great video!
I also get excited by the ice and snow... lol...
SO BEAUTIFUL! What views!! We love to go over into North Carolina when we are down there and this is now on the list!
Good thinking Dawn!!!!!! I would have gone down that mountain the same way, actually I wouldn't have gone up.
Hi there, another wonderful video. Thanks for sharing!

Great video. Very pretty scenery. I absolutley know that you are experienced and just what doing, but it sure made me dizzy. Ha ha!
Great video. It's been many, many years since I've been to Grandfather Mountain. I'm glad Smoky Mountain Hiker was with you.
That's beautiful I would never walk on a swinging bridge with Dawn. She scares me when you start telling her to stop making it swing
Great video. The wind is always crazy on that mountain. When we flew from Greenville, TN in a Cessna, I remember some type of advisory about the up drafts over those mountains.
You were brave getting on those rocks but the view was fantastic. Thanks for another great time.
Great video, guys. I've been there in 1963. A lot of changes since then.
Beautiful views. I'm right there with ya Dawn.. I'd be scooting down too. 😊😊
Y’all gotta do Speedway in Lights at Bristol Motor Speedway. BTW, you guys were so close to us.
Wow! Beautiful! Thanks for sharing!
This video gave me happy tears! My grandparents loved Grandfather Mtn. Back many years ago there is a photo of them on the bridge and it swayed a lot back then! Grandpa made sure of it! He passed 13 yrs ago today.😍

I love the southern mountains so much! But I am from Colorado, you should see what things look like from 14,000 ft!
Thanks for sharing
Be safe Will and Dawn
Wow love the exact place where Forest Gump ran, I want to do that hike too, as soon as possible....
Wow this bridge reminds me of what it’s like to trust Jesus, it’s scary, but worth it! Seems shaky and uncontrollable but He’s completely HARNESSED. And the walk with Him is risky but beautiful and breathtaking 😭👏 Dont get distracted by the winds, or look down... just focus on walking and making it across and you will be fine 😭👏

Would love to take the drive, but don’t think I have the nerve to cross the bridge!😉
Be safe
