It would take a far more expert word artist than I am to describe that scenery; the best thing you who read this can do is to go see it your self. On we traveled, around one moun tain and over another, always get ting higher and higher. At last we rounded the shoulder of a mountain and got a full view, for the first time, of our goal standing lofty and ma jestic with its top shrouded In a veil of white clouds. We pushed on eager to reach the top, but of course there were halts for rest and water. Now, water is one thing you never lack in the mountains; there are clear streams, cold as ice, trickling out of rocks all along the trails, and you may drink your fill without fear of "germs" as this water comes fron the heart of the mountains. At last we arrived at Clamp Alice, which marks the end of the Mt. Mitchell auto road, and the beginning of the Mt. Mitchell trail. Three quarters of a mile to the top and we rested for the last dash-then we went at it. As we climbed we found ourselves among the clouds and the air became rarer, making it harder to breathe, and causing stops for rest more frequently. By this time the party had divided into three groups, according to their "wind," and walk ing ability. A few minutes more of hard climbing and the first party reached the top, 3 hours and 45 minutes from the time we left Mon treat, 13 miles away. Fifteen min utes later the second group arrived, an(d about ten minutes after that the rear guard hove into sight over the top. We all went down a little ways from the summit and visited the United States forest ranger, who is stationed on top of the mountain to watch for forest fires. We built a fire and warmed up, and dried out, for we were all pretty well wet with cloud and perspiration. You may wonder why we wanted a fire, but when I tell you that it was 47 degrees in the sun, you will agree that a fire wouldn't feel badly. You couldn't see anything, anywhere, for clouds were all around us, and it rained - quite a shower. So, while we wanted for the suin, we ate lunch, talked to the ranger, and one or two of the crowd even went to sleep. When the sun finally came out and the clouds passed away, we went up the observation tower on the highest point of the mountain, and took in the scenery. Believe me, you can see all over the country from up there; the scenery is wonderful. Many well known mountains can be seen, among them Clingman's Dome, and the Black l1rothers. "Mc" Dabbs was positive that he saw Columbia, but "Tomny'' assured hin that what h ie saw was Spar-tanhutrg and not Co Ilumbia. J Aftetr takinag somne picturaes we star-tedl on the return tr-ip. Some of the mioa'e ener-getic memnber's of the p)arty decided to a-in p)art of the way back, anid I guess they must have, 1for- we ntever saw them aigain until Ithe next mornming at breakfast. The rest of us, being moire leisurely in Icdined, took out- timne abouat getting dIown anad took in the scener'y, for -t is nuach easier to walk dIown a m tountain than to clianb it. After so long a time we reachied Moanta'eat once amore, and being foot-sore and weary, we embarkedl in a fiivver that transported uas to Bluie Ridlge, where wer-e arrived at five o'clock, in time Ifor- a piping htot hath before supper. So, oura hike to Mt. Mitchell was over, and in spite of the sore muscles that we carried arouind for the next 1two dlays, theare was not a nmemnber' of the paarty who regr-ettedl the tr'ip, andl we utrge that everyone who goes to BIlue IRidge take tihe trip) to tIme "top of the worldI" b)y auto, at least -but it's a lot of funm to go oni foot, and you can sleepi at least 12 hmouras after yoia get back.
