McAfee Knob is the most photographed location on the Appalachian Trail. This iconic point has been featured dozens of times in the Best Photos from the Appalachian Trail. And for good reason: the views are incredible. A jagged rock overhang lends hikers a 270 degree view of the beautiful Catawba Valley for as far as the eye can see.

Prepare for your vantage point to be stretched even further.

The video below by Paul Stoutamire features ariel views of Catawba Valley as a quadcopter departs from McAfee Knob. The song in the video is Morning Sun by Jenny Mayhem. Thanks to Adam Womble for the tip.
