A tall fire lookout tower rises above a densely forested area, constructed with a sturdy metal framework. A small, enclosed cabin sits at the top of the tower, accessible by a narrow staircase that winds upward. Several taut guy wires anchor the structure, with one prominently tethered to a large rock in the foreground. Surrounding the tower are a variety of leafy trees and underbrush. The sky overhead is overcast, casting a muted, diffused light across the scene.

#fall in #NorthCarolina 🍂🍁

These were from a fantastic evening of short hikes to a couple of fire towers in #NantahalaNationalForest

I missed the peak colors at the high elevations by about a week, but the vibrant Oranges and Reds, especially in the valleys below, made for some fantastic shots!

A valley in the Appalachians filled with yellow, orange, and red fall colors and drastic shadows and ridges casting into the valley.

Was a nice little hike, but you know.... Then it greyed over and the photography was scant, Got this one though!
