Good Morning, It's another beautiful morning up top. Our overnight low dipped down to 25 degrees, and yesterday's high made it up to a refreshing 35 degrees. You can still see some traces of snow from Saturday's dusting. The trails up top are mostly dry, with lingering bits of ice in the shaded spots of the trail. It's gonna be a great Thanksgiving to be out and about in nature! Though I won't get to see my family this Thanksgiving, I can't say that I feel sad. Since coming up to Mt. Le Conte this past Saturday, I've received nothing but the highest level of hospitality from this year’s crew and management. The picture above was taken during this year's last dinner service. I hope it gives you the same feelings of warmth and hospitality that I've experienced this week.
The staff are all gone now and the dining room is no longer glowing with warmth. The winter season up top has officially begun. As we move into the colder months, I look forward to sharing my experiences with each one of you. I hope to cross paths with many of you this winter season. Until then… Happy Trails, Seth

Welcome Seth! We look forward to your postings and photos this winter. Given the stunning dining hall photo from Tuesday night, we blog readers are in for a real treat!! That shot looks more like a Robert Tino painting than a photograph. Thanks for sharing your creative eye.
