After some review, I realized I had not posted many of the images I took on my Spring visit to the Smokies last May. So I hope you don't mind if I remedy the situation. This is looking out across the mountains from the summit of Clingman's Dome. It's the top of the top. Spring and Fall are my favorite seasons to visit here. Spring for the flowers and the bear cubs if you're lucky enough to see one, not to mention the cooler hikes. And Fall for the beautiful fall leaves and crisp fall hikes. I've hiked in the Smokies in dead of summer and must say, it's no fun. It's hot, humid and just plain yucky. So I'm sticking to my favorite seasons to visit. Have a great week everyone. Thanks for stopping by. ENJOY!

The second characteristic is unmistakable as you stand peering down at the mountain ranges at Newfound Gap Overlook. The ever constant blue smoke saturates the mountains leaving a misty blue landscape to dominate the scene. ENJOY!
