Recently had the chance to lead some hikes for the Roan Mountain Fall Naturalist Rally. With the busy pace and great participation at these hikes, there's rarely time for the hike leaders to take any photos. So I planned to arrive early for my own hike up on the Roan Highlands to watch the sunrise.
Here are two views of the bright pre-dawn.
Here are some B&W views of the early morning mist.
And sun coming up over the balds!
Hope you will have the opportunity to visit this rich wild place for yourself sometime soon. Thanks for any comments & critique.
