Fotod Blowing Rock (land feature)

Striking Beauty, autor Zainub

From Blowing Rock's <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blowing_Rock_(land_feature)">Wikipedia entry</a>: <i>Blowing Rock is a rocky outcropping, at the town of Blowing Rock, North Carolina, above a gorge in Caldwell County, in the northwest of that state. The prevailing wind blows through the gorge toward Blowing Rock. There, at the end of the gorge, the wind's path of least resistance is up the steep slopes surmounted by the outcropping, resulting in a nearly vertical wind, typically quite strong, accounting for 'Blowing' as part of the spot's name. The view from Blowing Rock down the largely undisturbed forest of the gorge is unobstructed, long, and striking. The legend of the Blowing Rock is that a Cherokee brave leapt from the rock into the wilderness below, only to have a gust of wind return him back to his lover on top of the rock.</i>
