I traveled with my buddies, Allen and Dan along the bumpy gravel road bordering the west side of Linville Gorge Wilderness. It takes about 30 minutes to travel the several miles to Wiseman's View. The spot has been an attraction for many years and over the years many folks have camped and picnicked here. Today there is a paved access trail to the view. Long ago, someone built 2 stone stairways leading down to two stone fence enclosures to view the gorge below. It is a spectacular sight. The Linville River is far below with Shortoff, Table Rock and Hawksbill mountains on the other side of the gorge.
