Frosty Mt. Sterling Fire Tower

Tom Dunigan sent me this incredible photo of the Mt. Sterling lookout tower in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park from his hike this past weekend. Something significant about this photo....... it's October!

Where's your book Tom?

And to think, Blue Ridge Outdoors magazine just featured Mt. Sterling as one of the best locations to enjoy fall color this autumn.  There goes my credibility....

For some great info and photos of lookout towers in both Tennessee and the GSMNP, check out Dr. Dunigan's fantastic Tennessee Lookout Towers website.
