I maintain three miles of the MST near Doughton Park in Alleghany County. It's a beautiful section of trail. I'm glad to see your series, but it should note the formative role of the late Louise Chatfield of Greensboro. She's probably the person who first came up with the idea.
Also note that we need volunteers to keep this trail maintained.

I have hiked extensively between Grandfather Mountain and Mount Mitchell. This part of the MST rivals anything you would see hiking anywhere on the East Coast. This section includes Table Rock/Linville Gorge along with the waterfalls near Wilson Creek. Absolutely spectacular and very well marked with the white circular blazes.

Friday, I hiked the part of the trail that criss-crosses
the Boone Fork Trail (Julian Price Park) Absolutely
beautiful right now. Did see bear scat. Keep your eyes
open on this section of the trail.
