orogenesis zone

The rain was back with a venegence. And I mean that in the least metaphorical way possible (notwithstanding the clever title of this entry). Simply put: it rained a lot on Saturday. I rained a lot on Sunday. It rained a lot on Monday. The ground was soping wet. The rivers ran milk chocolate brown. And Sunday, during the breaks in the storm at 6000', the views were magnificent. At least I thought so.

Never let anyone tell you that the Blue Ridge Parkway and the Art Loeb trail are the wrong places to be during a thunderstorm.

You can click virtually every one of these photographs for a larger photograph.













This is at the top of the Caney Fork watershed. If I peed here I could possibly be fishing in my own urine at Moses Creek some time later.





























I will move back here in the near future.
