A Fantastic Sunset On LeConte

01/06/2010

This is the same sunset view I posted last night. The highest peak you see is Clingman's Dome. That's the highest peak in the Smokies. The Appalacian Trail goes right over Clingman's Dome. It was very clear out tonight, almost too clear for a good sunset.

Clingman's Dome From Cliff Tops,1-6-10

This is why they are called the Smoky Mountians. This view towards West Point was breathtaking.

The sky avove the setting sun was so clear it seemed like I could see for ever.

Wow!! Simply breathtaking. The pictures just keep getting better. Pictures like this make you realize how beautiful and special nature is. Through the stillness on the mountaintop, I can hear Muir's words "Go to the mountains and get their good tidings."
