Scenes from the Trail

A good rest for the Crew in Hot Springs, spoke with Adam and all is well. He made it to the library to complete a quick post yesterday, and everyone's spirits are great. They only had a brief bit of rain, and are hoping to leave early on Saturday morning to beat the severe weather headed into the Carolina's.
Here are a few photos from the hike through the Smokies up to Clingman's Dome, the highest point on the Appalachian Trail - 6,643 feet high, check out some interesting Clingman's Dome facts here: http://www.clingmansdome.com/...enjoy the photos!
