EPISODE 12: "Paint Rock"

Along the French Broad River, where the mountains narrow and the passage tightens, there is a place known as Paint Rock.
Once marked with figures in red pigment, now faded, nearly gone, it remains a landmark defined by something no longer fully seen.
By the late 1700s, even those who recorded the site could not clearly explain it. A surveyor named John Strother noted the markings in 1784, but no meaning was preserved. The images remained. The explanation did not.
In 1778, frontier scouts Henry Reynolds and Thomas Morgan passed through this same corridor, tracking stolen horses, discovering the mineral waters that would become the Warm Springs, and leaving behind a brief but stark record of violence along the river.
In this episode of Echoes of the Blue Ridge, Ryan Phillips explores Paint Rock as both place and witness, where fading markings, early accounts, and the movement of people through the mountains intersect.
Because in the Blue Ridge…
not everything that shaped the land can still be understood.
