Curiouser and curiouser. Did gyre and gimble in the wabe; All mimsy were the borogoves, And the mome raths outgrabe.

Celo knob looking all frosty this morning.

Lots of people still helping with supply stations and free hot meals. Lots of work on restoring the trails and park areas. Also lots of dump trucks on the roads and lots more debris to be collected. Everyone is doing things to help/move forward. But there’s still years of work to be done.
I’m missing my favorite park something awful. Mount Mitchell was my second home. Maybe trails will open up again this spring, but the roads were destroyed and won’t be accessible for at least a year. Sigh. #Helene #wnc #pisga #appalachia #nature
In this weird sad way I’m grateful for the relief center I’ve been volunteering at since Helene. It’s been a nice distraction from the crazy. I just hand out hot meals and people smile and say thank you.
Missing warm summer days. Photo from a couple of years ago in #Pisga National Forest of a few Grey’s Lilly blooms and an old plane wreckage. Both passengers survived with minor injuries. #wnc #nature #rareplants #flowers #nature #blueridgeparkway #hiking #naturephotography

The purple ones are rare here in southern Appalachia. I’ve only ever seen one white fringe orchid.

Wilson Creek Wild and Scenic River Area is national forest land situated between the Blue Ridge Parkway and Lenior NC.

Forty-nine thousand acres of wilderness area with multiple trails, backcountry camping and many waterfalls. Currently trails are closed because of damage from Helene.
