It is another beautiful morning up top. There was a fiesta of colours as I awoke to report the weather this morning - pinks and purples were gently shading the horizon line as I walked to the kitchen, some of Nature's fine watercolour strokes. The air is crisp and I expect to see lots of folks up top burning off yesterday's indulgences!

Visions of Days to come !!! Thanks for your posts !!! They say that Einstein was correct with his relativity theory; I suppose that's true. Einstein was also popssibly an alien ! I've read his papers and they're over my head for the most part; Stephen Hawkins is another, modern-day brilliant mind, Nice photos of Cliff Tops today. thanks.

Questions. How many times does one cross LeConte creek on the Rainbow falls trail? How many bridges cross LeConte creek on Rainbow falls trail?

Being an old guy, the opening reference to the Five Man Electrical Band song got my attention. For you youngsters out there you are probably thinking of the Tesla version. Great writing as I felt like I was there. Enjoyed your post.

How fortunate for us that you had not yet had your fill of our mountain. I wonder that it is possible to reach that level. Enjoy the pics!

I would have to disagree with Einstein. I've been married 47 years and could not imagine being alone. Welcome back jp

I'm new to this site and from the first photo and beautiful writing I fell head over heels in love. So thankful for a fellow hiker that recommended this hike atop Mt LeConte. The hike is on my list for 2014! Again thanks for the beautiful writing and photos it's almost like being there

Speaking of signs, are the signs along the trails and at trail intersections accurate !? I understand that there's some disagreement with the elevation sign on the front of the dining hall, but I guess that's old news...............
