I went to school there when it was still laurel high school.

What’s the deepest snow you’ve seen out here?

Love the homage to Ralph Lewis. ❤

I would love to come

Does the property have restrictions? I have a few friends coming with me. 🐄🐄🐄🐓🐓🐓

Looks like y'all had a lot of fun. I was wondering if we're related. I descend from Lazarus Phillips Jr. Through his son Warfield

My hometown

My great grandfathers place of birth and hometown. He moved from hot springs with wife and young son to laurens, SC around 1940. They had another son and two daughters. He owned a construction business. He died in 2008 at abt 92 yrs old. I was 19.

Hwy 19 & 23!!! Always

Home sweet home !!!

Great video! My hometown and I love to visit as often as I can.

Awesome Capture! Beautiful Place!😊👍

Such a beautiful place A must visit😉👍

Beautiful!

Great video . God's country .

I love it! Bout brought a tear to my eye. Great production, great music and the sentiment behind the song is felt as well as heard. Gotta love the lil girl in the band with the big boys... the next generation keeping our mountain traditions alive! I'm a fan for life!

I've loved this band since they started years ago, and they never disappoint. Great music, great lyrics, great talent.

Good job..brought back a lot of old memories...enjoyed the song too..

Great song!! I enjoy listening to your music!!

I think I saw my house from there, lol! Honestly, I'm pretty sure I did. Yes people, it really is THIS beautiful out here! Breathtakingly so. Mars Hill Baby!

I'm proud to be from, and live in Madison county NC! It's full of history and of course, this beauty. Still takes my breath away every day! Great work capturing a new perspective, I'm surprised you haven't been featured anywhere locally yet. Beautiful footage. Do you do certain locations by private request? I have an area in Madison county that is beautiful, but I'm trying to get a better idea of the trails and old roads, homesites etc. I've considered buying a drone, but one that is operable by a noob and takes high quality video is out of my proce range. I had considered hiring a pro/hobbyist to check out the area from above. Email at bonezcustomknives@gmail.com me if you might be interested! Or check me out on instagram and shoot me a dm @bonezcustoms I'd love to see more if these videos one way or the other!

Great video. I wonder where I may see the rest? I travel to Shelton laurel almost every weekend just to be in the area. You can literally feel this history in those mountains. I live about 5 mins from the rural heritage museum in Mars Hill, can the rest of this video be viewed there? Any further info is much appreciated. Jim Brown

Thanks for this documentary, well done. As many other people, I'm a direct descendant of people involved. My gg grandfather was in Mcelroy home guard, and was shot and killed by Joseph Shelton right after the war. Also had uncles, cousins in the 64th. Hope you can make more of these. Such a ugly time for everyone in the mountains. Thanks again!

why was the main focus point mars hill? it missed the best part of surrounding marshall, the bypass and walnut. good vid tho

Great job, Ryan! We live in one of the most beautiful places, which you have so wonderfully captured here! Thanks for this :)

Beautiful, breath taking, and most important it is home. 1979 to 1991, 1996 to 1998, 2005 to 2006. The best place that I have ever lived. Would like to go back and do it again.

WOW HOW GORGEOUS THAT IS, MY BIRTHPLACE IN 1944 MADISON COUNTY... THANKS FOR POSTING THIS..

Miss Madison County so much. 💔💔💔

best song I'v ever heard Eric Church sing,
