Natural History Wanderings

Great Smoky Mt. National Park has a new Fall Color Report for November 3, 2014

Fall colors can still be found in many low elevation areas and some middle elevation areas, especially on the Tennessee side of the park. Around Cades Cove, you can still find color in the valley and on Laurel Creek Road leading into the cove. The North Carolina side of the park is typically a few days ahead of the Tennessee side, and many low elevation trees here are already bare. Trees in upper elevations throughout the park are bare.
