Road Trip #435 - Blue Ridge Parkway - Mile 265-280

In today's video, we travel from mile 265 to 280 on the Blue Ridge
Parkway in North Carolina. We pass the Mount Jefferson overlook,
Betsey's Rock Falls Overlook and the Lewis Fork Overlook. We enter the
E. B. Jeffress Park, and then pass the Tomkins Knob Overlook and the Elk
Mountain Overlook before passing several unnamed, undocumented
overlooks that we failed to stop at, so we don't know what's there.

Pontchartrain at the junction of I-10, I-59 and I-12.

overlook we pass in this video is The Lump Overlook.
