    It's a State Park so you have to pay parking. Or you can get an annual pass for $50 ($35 for seniors:)). Then back country camping is $9/night.

    I'm surprised no one has mentioned Mt Rogers/Grayson Highlands. But be warned, it may ruin you for lesser hikes.

    I always filter. I haven't seen any advantage in not filtering.

    I wear a seat belt when in a car and look both ways before crossing the road too.
