Sam Perkins hadn't heard from his parents, who live in typically picturesque Little Switzerland area of western NC, in nearly 48 hours. So, sick with worry, he set out to find them- & ended up hiking 11 miles through devastation in the mountains. cnn.com/2024/09/30/us/…

Yesterday EducationNC's Emily Thomas led the way for us as our reporting in WNC begins after the hurricane. First stop McDowell County, where she interviewed Lillian and Freya, who attend Nebo Elementary School and are hard at work at the local distribution center. #nced

In the most rugged parts of the North Carolina mountains, volunteers on horseback are climbing hillsides to check on folks who’s path in/out is washed out or tree-covered. Here’s a group in Ashe County Wednesday. #helene #ncwx #cltwx
