One of the most incredible views in the Smokies is of the Bradley Fork valley. It’s not an easy walk to get here. It’s never crowded. And it never disappoints. . . I’ve chosen to post this photo with the rhododendron blooming because that may be the next time I get to hike. I finally got a diagnosis on my foot yesterday. I’ve got inflammation in the sural nerve. So, lots of therapy, an antiinflammation diet, and as much low impact exercise as I can stand for the next six weeks to get that nerve released. . . #AT #trektheAT #appalachiantrail #whiteblaze #wildeast #rhododendron #bradleyfork #forceofnature #sweatydirtyhappy #blueridgebabes #hikelikeagirl #badasswomen #Smokies #GSMNP #SmokyMountains #backpacking #takeahike #altraredteam #zerolimits #hiking #optoutside #choosemountains #choosemountainswomen #blueridgemoments https://www.instagram.com/p/BubPnkAFoP5/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=17c0hzslpxl84
