I think I found the perfect October hike in western North Carolina 🤫🐦‍⬛🍂 📍Ivestor Gap Trail, Tennent Mountain, and Black Balsam Knob Loop 4.3 miles | 688ft Elevation gain | 1 hour from Asheville This popular route on the Pisgah National Forest isn’t exactly a secret, but here is my case for why you NEED to hike this section of the Art Loeb Trail in October: 🍂 On clear days, you’ll hike through fiery red meadows and get incredible 360-degree views of the fall colors on the surrounding ridges
