Planning a Section from Rock Gap to Fontana in late September, and trying to plan (not commit) for temperature expectations. I have been using this link to follow the extended forecast: http://www.weather.com/weather/tenda...C+081102:13:US. This is for Robbinsville, NC.
My question is that Robbinsville sits at abotu 2050'. How much cooler should I expect to find on the adjacent AT section? Tentative campsites are at 5000', 5000', NOC, 4000', and 3000'. Any ideas how those altitudes might compare to the Robbinsville forecast?
