I love those fall like days when you can see your breath while watching the sunrise. The air is crisp and the red of the mountain ash berries stands out next to the bright blue sky. Yesterday was one of those days. It was a pleasant 57º with a low of 42º. The mountain top was busy with day hikers and guests lounging around and enjoying the amazing weather. At one point you could hear all of camp break out in a loud roar as UT scored its only touchdown for the game against Oregon. Most of the guests had hiked up portable radios to listen to their favorite team while hanging out on top of the mountain. This morning we are back in the clouds.

Our Vols scored TWO touchdowns - they need all the credit we can muster at this time!!

Nice and clear view. That doesn't happen to often up there lately. It was a beautiful chilly day here yesterday too. Now, were getting rain.

If I was able to hike to the top of Old Smoky, I would prefer the beauty and quietness rather than a loud football game. Plenty of time for that at home.

@Phylliss. I love football. But the zen of LeConte is, in my opinion, spoiled with a radio. Sort of like a cold beer on Christmas morning. It just doesn't work.
