Good Morning All, Fall is starting to set in at 6593 feet and this mornings weather showed that well. A slight breeze pushing thick clouds in between trees of golden brown has us in the fall mood today. Chilly temperatures add to the seasonal change as it is currently 59 degrees outside. Last night we dropped to 47 degrees. It won't be too much longer till the entire park is bursting with fall colors and we can't wait. Though we are experiencing the fall weather at the summit, the valley below is still getting some summer heat. Be sure to pack plenty of water as the trail conditions at the lower elevations are still expected to be hot. Once at the top of the mountain you can enjoy this cool weather with us. A small chance of rain for late this afternoon but likely to pass.
