The rain moved in yesterday afternoon. It continued to rain for most of the evening. As the temperatures dropped the rain turned to snow. We awoke this morning to about an inch of fresh powder. The ground was soaked before the snow fell, that makes for a good base layer of ice. If you are hiking up today, please make sure you have the proper clothing and some form of ice walker. The temperature is hovering in the mid twenties. The wind is blowing. It is a bone chilling morning on the mountain.

Hey, I recognize that cabin. Think I'll put it on my desktop and wait for its resident to emerge. As usual, beautiful pictures, Allyson! Enjoy your snowy, hot-chocolatey day!

I look forward each day to reading your latest entry. I have always loved the mountains and being of Cherokee ancestry that area is dear to my heart. Again thank you for sharing and for the beautiful photos!!

Completed my day hike to the lodge on Wednesday. The weather was perfect for hiking - sunny with moderate temperatures.

Beautiful pictures and I really enjoy your blog. We are scheduled to head up on Monday afternoon and staying Monday night at the lodge. Do you think there will be some thawing by then on the trail? We are planning on coming up Alum and going down Trillium.
