US State Highpoint 7/50  Sucess!

On a steady roll here, one a day. Rode motorcycle to parking lot, walked the nice trail, went up the flying saucer. Very nice setup, pretty everything including views, not particularly an adventure. Mostly fog except for a 15-minute spell of clearness.

Clingman's Dome  Sucess!

Drove up and birded the pleasant but steep pitch to the flying saucer. Track here: https://ebird.org/checklist/S47859671. Some day we will need to hike it from bottom to top to really make it count.

HP #13  Sucess!

Got the pregnant wife up for a completely fogged in summit with no views! Fast forward to 2021 and we were rewarded with expansive vistas of the Smokies.

Highpoint #17  Sucess!

Decent hike through a diverse forest, but disappointed to share the summit tower with maybe 50 other people. That and the loud road took away from this one. 7 miles out and back on the AT from Fork Ridge.

Clingman's Dome Summit edit  Sucess!

Completed this during the pandemic. Road to the dome was closed so hiked/ran the road to the summit, watched the sunset and ran down in the dark. Did this with my 2 20 something children so it was a very special day.
