Mountains-to-Sea Trail to Jumpinoff Rock, The Lump, and Mount Jefferson Overlook - Blue Ridge Parkway, NC, 04-23-16, 15.1 miles

A long, peaceful section hike along the Mountains-to-Sea Trail (MST) in the northern Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina. The MST in this region after climbing to the Blue Ridge Escarpment in Stone Mountain State Park closely follows the Blue Ridge Parkway southwest all the way to Grandfather Mountain. This is a sparsely hiked region but offers easy hikes in a pastoral countryside setting with many views. I started at the Jumpinoff Rock Parking Area at mile 260.3, hiking south to Jumpinoff Rock. Next stop was The Lump Overlook at mile 264.4 with amazing north views from The Lump of Doughton Park, Stone Mountain, and the Sauratown Mountains. My turnaround point was the Mount Jefferson Overlook at mile 266.8 with great views of Mt. Jefferson and the dominant Amphibolite Range in addition to views of the South Fork New River Valley, Grandfather Mountain, Watauga River Valley, and Linville Gorge. It was beautiful weather for a long, gentle hike and I even saw a snake!
