Good Afternoon,
The wind is howling up here today, more so than yesterday. We're enjoying a sunny break in the action, but it sounds like more atmospheric disturbances are on deck for tonight. We tallied 0.5" of rainfall yesterday, and temperatures remained fairly stable. Our recorded high was 57 degrees, with only a low of 53. With the sunshine beating down on the mountain, it's surpassed 60 degrees at the moment. Everyone who isn't working is trying to soak up some quick rays before they disappear again. We're currently waiting on the llamas to arrive with the last of this week's supplies. If you choose to get out in these conditions, be mindful that trees, particularly those in the burned areas or hemlock forests, are more susceptible to falling. Dress for wind and rain as well. Have a great rest of the day!

Sure hope your day was as beautiful as the pictures. We were blessed to have sunshine and great views while ascending LeConte. A light mist the next day coming down was refreshing. Many many thanks for the wonderful hospitality during our stay. You all made our anniversary a very memorable one! (Move over, Martha Stewart! Heather makes the most delicious cakes ever!)

We had another wonderful adventure hiking up and staying with you last night. Thanks for making it so enjoyable and memorable. This was our daughter's first trip and she loved it. The first time my husband and I came we had unusually cold weather as an Arctic blast blew in. This time we had those amazing blustery gusts of wind. Do you happen to know what the wonder speeds reached last night? I wonder what natural phenomena our next trip will bring? Hope to be there again soon.
