Signs on the fence warn DANGER OF DEATH! At least once every year, some foolish soul jumps the fence and ventures out onto the rock to try and peek over the edge.

One every year.

I did a week on the A.T. in October. I did not fall once and I crossed several streams and wet areas.
You live near Asheville NC to, huh?
