Smoky Mountains at Dawn
Image by Brian Hathcock
Taken on October 13, 2006 at 6:37 A.M. from Clingman’s Dome, 6,643 feet above sea level. It’s the highest point in both the Great Smoky Mountains National Park and Tennessee, and the second highest point east of the Mississippi. It’s a seven-mile drive to the top, and I was speeding because I could see light a-comin’. It was one of the best sunrises I’ve seen. More photos to come.
