October 15, 2025 and the natural wonders of the GSMNP are just beautiful. Fall colors above 3,000’ feet are popping especially after the recent rain and cold 🥶 snap, rivers flowing through ancient rock, carve paths through old growth forests, elk in full rut just an awesome place to be!

Our last stop would be to take in the views from 6,643 feet at Kuwohi, kicking back to watch the sun slip away, what a beautiful sunset sadly nature and weather at elevation was very cloudy and unable to view our goal of the sunset from Kuwohi, but we loaded up after some photos and headed down to Ben Morton overlook, below the cloud line and enjoyed the end of the sunset. Then we loaded up and headed back to our clients Vrbo in City of Gatlinburg!
