| Description | The image shows a view of the Blue Ridge Parkway, with pastures and trees surrounding it. The photo appears to have been taken from a higher vantage point on a hillside. The parkway runs from the bottom right corner of the image up through the center. Several wooden fences cut through pastures on both sides of the parkway, and a house and small shed appear to the right of the road toward the center of the image. A densely wooded area appears in the background, and there are also trees lining the road and scattered in the pastures. Image taken near milepost 155 and station 1010 in section 1Q of the Blue Ridge Parkway, in Floyd County, Va. Image taken by Edward H. Abbuehl on October 11, 1937. |
