I went snowshoeing up Clingmans Dome Road last Friday (Feb 19) with 30 inches of snow at Collins Gap. That is as far as I made it. I had a turn around time of 3:00 so I came back. No problem! I broke new snow to about Indian Gap and that is where I met Wendell Liemon, 75 years old, skiing by himself in my tracks. He was very appreciative of me breaking new snow! ha ha
Here is Indian Gap...
And here is a beautiful scene of the snow on the trees...
I met a group of 6 going to Mt Collins Shelter...it was 4:30 in the afternoon and they were at Indian Gap. They still had over 3 miles to go and they were post-hole hiking.
Beautiful day at the top of the world!
