When we are in Pigeon Forge I try to make a trip to the top of the Smokie Mountains. After driving through the heavy traffic in Gatlinburg we finally came to the park.
After curve after curve and a couple of tunnel we go to the top. We.ve seen this view at least 40-50 times it is always breath taking. The temperature in the vally was 75° but on top of the mountain it was only 57°.

The roderdendrun is in full bloom on the mountain and is simply beautiful. I had to take some pics of the flower lined mountain streams.
In the picture with the water you can't see the flowers of the roderdendrun very well but this is what they look like.
