Indian Joe purports---great pictures Bob--can almost feel the purl of
Slickrock

Purl - now that is a fine word. Awesome pictures Bob, especially of the
brook trout stream.

I agree - that is a remarkably fine, poetic turn of phrase to describe a
trout stream. I've gotta remember it.

Glad you enjoyed the pictures. I'm getting to the point that I can sometimes
have almost as much fun with a camera as with a fly rod.

Here are some images of Slickrock, the trail thereto, and a few other
streams in southwestern North Carolina. This doesn't include any photos of
Snowbird or Hazel because I forgot to take my camera and, besides, Jeff
posted some very good photos of those streams.

about 1869 so that he could marry the woman who became my great
grandmother."

Did it work?

Nice photos, Bob.

Thanks.

Very nice! Do you have a lot of streams like that in your area? Are
they all public access? Are they often/ever crowded?

Bob These are all public streams. ... I don't know what you mean by
Bob "crowded" but to me a stream is crowded if I can see another
Bob fisherman. But some southern appalachian streams are so small, so
Bob heavily covered, and so twisty that another fisherman can be a
Bob hundred meters away and you'd not know if he was there unless you
Bob saw his footprints.

Sounds perfect to me. I saved your messages in case I ever happen to
be "in the neighborhood".

Hmmmmm.
She must have been a hell of a catch. I should present that idea to my
daughters' boyfriends. If I ever see them.


Nice photos, Bob.

Thanks.

Glad you liked them. Missed seeing you this year. One day I drove up the
North River Road, crossed the ridge, and down the road beside Santeetlah. I
marveled at how you, Jeffie, and I climbed out of that damned creek. We must
have been almost within hailing distance of the Cherohala.
