effects, and the sunshine over all,
made a fellow thank his stars that
he was alive and able to enjoy the
wonder of God's great outdoors. 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.
