Laurel Falls
Laurel Falls trail was only about 15 minutes from our camp. The trail itself was not too steep or difficult, and the temperature and humidity weren't bad. I am not used to doing very much activity in my daily life now, and keeping in mind that I am in my mid 50's, plus being quite heavy, this 1.25 mile hike was about the limit of what I can do. Although, I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Both sides of the mountain road, in either direction from this trail, were very congested with tourist parking. And we must have seen at least a couple of thousand people along the trail, including many people visiting the United States from other countries.
