Mainecat Posted May 14, 2021 Share Posted May 14, 2021 (edited) There is a great fly fishing only pond there that’s hard to get to. It’s full of trout. Black Mountain Pond it’s remote and accessible by 4 wheelers and you have to walk in the last half mile.

Was up there (I'm real close by) for a few hrs last Sunday AM. Not even a bite. But, I don't fish much. Edited May 14, 2021 by CFM 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, there are several trails in the area. My neighbor climbed Mt Pisgah (mt on left) this spring. He showed me pics looking o9ut over the cliffs. Those cliffs are also popular in the winter for ice climbing. There is also an old CCC road that has a great lookout from the left side( Mt Hoar) of the photo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racinfarmer Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 After a 10:30pm stop at the Wal-Mart in the hood and a early morning with the fam at the flea market, I'm feeling pretty normal right about now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smokin george Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 I finally got around to doing the brakes over the weekend. I went on Sat to pick up the new calipers and they never got any of their orders delivered so I had to put the old ones back on. Now I have to wait another 2-3 weeks to have the shop to myself for ten days. I'll rip out the interior in the meantime and install all the new carpets 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frostynuts Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 Hey George, looking good, you got that paint shining great. Did you have to give it your special treatment or did you find it like that ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's that funky shit where it changes 4-5 diff colors depending on the angle. I'm starting on the bottom of the car with all new brakes/lines, gas tank,sending unit fuel pump and lines, stabilizer kits front/back, all new shocks and whatever else. I have all new carpets for the interior then doing all new hoses,vacuum lines etc ,new tires/rims and then getting it painted 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
