CLINGMAN'S DOME
PARKING LOT OVERLOOK |
|
Clingman's
Dome parking area's elevation is approximately 6,312' above sea level.
Being one of the highest reference points in the Smokies, colors will
progress here sooner than lower elevations, and is a good benchmark to
predict coming colors! Unfortunately many of the trees here are dead due apparently
to pollution, acid rain, etc. NOTE: A few of
our friends e-mailed us, and the appears that majority of the dead trees
were actually attacked by an insect, the Balsam Woolly Adelgid.
(Thanks Lori and Raymond O. for the 'heads-up'!) |

And now a Word from
our Sponsor... |
| Deuteronomy 12:3 And ye
shall overthrow their altars, and break their pillars, and burn their
groves with fire; and ye shall hew down the graven images of their gods,
and destroy the names of them out of that place. |
