Good afternoon,
We are starting to see some wild flowers bloom here at the lodge. A small patch of purple monks hood can be spotted behind the dining hall porch. It won’t be too much longer and all of camp will be covered in vibrant color. Summer showers are on the forecast for this afternoon. So far today we are staying dry. A slight breeze is rolling through camp pushing the clouds in and out. Brief breaks in the cloud allow for some warm sunshine and spectacular views. It is currently 66 degrees. Last nights low only dropped to 53 degrees.

Good afternoon,
After a rainy evening yesterday we are happy to be in the sunshine this morning. Enjoying it while we can as forecast are calling for scattered showers for the rest of the day. Looking at weather for tomorrow’s holiday we are expecting the rains to continue but the crew is remaining hopeful that it will change. Yesterday’s high reached a warm 71 degrees and only dropped to 52 degrees. Temperatures today are remaining a bit on the cooler side, currently 64 degrees. For those planning a hike up be sure to pack that rain gear and expect trail conditions to be wet. Good morning all,
Good Morning All, Great Smoky Mountains National Park officials announced that Trillium Gap Trail will be temporarily closed through Thursday, July 11, due to hazardous trail conditions. The area received heavy rainfall over the last couple of weeks causing extremely slippery, muddy conditions on the trail surface undergoing rehabyilitation. Our llama friends have been given permission from park service to continue using Trillium Gap Trail in order to get supplies to the lodge. The llama schedule is Monday Wednesday and a mix of Thursday and Friday. It’s that time of year when we start to see summer showers on the radar for most late afternoons. Be sure to pack that rain gear. Temperatures in the valley below may be reaching the 90s but here at 6593 feet we are staying nice and cool. Yesterday’s high came in at 69 degrees. Overnight low only dropped to 51 degrees. |
