Lake Lure

After my cold hike, I stopped off in lake lure on the way back to pinehurst. Back to 96 degrees and sun! 
I don't particularly mind the heat and the lake was just stunning under the blue skies. 
Most of these pictures are completely unedited. Great day for lighting! 
Lake lure beach with sugar loaf mountain in the background. 

The pavilion. 
Looking down the lake at rumbling bald and shurmont mountains. 
Heading up the Broad River. 
Looking down hickory nut gorge. Buffalo hump mountain to the right and chimney rock to the left. 
Next turn was into the town centre. 
And then the pride of lake lure, the flowering bridge. This was once the bridge that connected lake lure to the neighboring chimney rock.   The town has remodeled it and planted a flower garden across the bridge. 

Gorgeous flowers. 


Heading back towards town. Next stop,little Bradley falls.
