For those that have hiked this section this may cause some nostalgia.
Across the weekend of July 15th-17th my job brought me sorta close to Roan Mountain TN and I jumped at the chance to do an outstanding section of AT (for the fourth time.... and how can you not do this if close?). I parked at Mountain Harbor BnB and paid them to shuttle me to Greasy Creek Gap for a weekend section hike.
Sunset near first nights camp on Rock Knob
Wildflowers along the way...
A one mile detour to Yellow Mountain overlook (cattle in distance)
After a brief micro-burst I was treated to this awesome rainbow at my Little Hump Mountain camp.
A nice view of Big Hump in the gloaming.
Sun setting on night 2
OK one more rainbow shot

Happy Trails!
