Sitting Among the Trees

After that steep climb we arrived at the park's visitor's center & we rewarded with a spectacular view

It seems to be nothing but wilderness

I wish I had a UV filter on the lens

The trees were starting to turn

I can imagine how beautiful these trees will be in October

The topographical maps I looked at this area said this is Black Mountain

I was surprised to see a bear in the visitors center

The Black Bears are getting into areas they haven't been in a long time
