The mountaintops here in Asheville are covered in snow. Above about 4000 feet is a decent amount of snowfall. It started here last night with some sleet and freezing rain. The clouds just lifted out and the mountaintops are beautiful. Im sure Marta will have some cool pictures from here hike.

It was that way from Neel's to Unicoi as well. We camped half way between the two Friday night. Winds were above 40 mph and snow. It was great!

and just like that its going to be in the mid 60's over the next few days. Great time to be out hiking
5 inches at Beech Gap on the BMT. Feathered out around 3000 ft.
It was gorgeous last weekend. Walking in a winter wonderland, for sure. Even that dreadful mousepit, Spring Mountain Shelter, looked picture-postcard cute in the snow.

Drove through Davenport Gap Saturday en-route to the Foothills Trail and noted the white stuff - beautiful! Sunday morning in Upland SC was quite frosty.
