Then we got on Linville Gorge Trail heading south. It was early in the season, but we spotted a couple bloodroot flowering.
In about 1.5 miles from Pinch In Trail, we arrived at Daffodil Flats.
An old homesite from before the gorge was a wilderness, the only thing left is the field of daffodils that bloom year after year. Despite the challenging hike, it is very popular and there were numerous other groups coming and going.
We had lunch down here, then started making our way back. The climb back up Pinch In Trail was brutally steep, but the clouds had cleared so numerous opportunities for a break.
Near the top, there was a big rock to climb on for fantastic views of Linville Gorge.
