Location
This one too.

 
2d hiked trail
Newfound Gap Trail.

Moved
Moved from Syrphid Flies.

Looks like
The male of Epistrophe grossulariae, but from this angle it's not a 100% ID!
Greetings

Syrphid fly
Hard to ID from these views, but you may get lucky. Do you have a shot from above, showing pattern on abdomen?

 
No, only these two shots
