    1 | Mountains-to-Sea Trail Last Updated 11/12/2018 View from the Mountains-to-Sea Trail at Clingmans Dome Photo by Danny Bernstein Peak to Peak—MST Segment 1 Clingmans Dome to Waterrock Knob By Jim Grode The 46.8-mile-long Segment 1 of the Mountains-to-Sea Trail (MST) be- gins in Great Smoky Mountains National Park (GSMNP), straddling Ten- nessee and North Carolina. Newfound Gap Road (US 441), which travels north from Cherokee, North Carolina, to Gatlinburg, Tennessee, forms the backbone of the park and climbs to over 5,000 feet at Newfound Gap. If national parks have specialties, the Smokies is known as a hiker’s park. The scenery is diverse: mountain views, old-growth trees, waterfalls, streams, and more shades of green than a paint chart. Mile for mile, you’ll Segment 1 | 2 find hiking in the park easier than in the neighboring national forests. Even though there are no blazes on Smokies trails, they are so well marked at every intersection that you can follow them with confidence. (Still, stop at a Visitor Center and pick up a Great Smoky Mountains Trail Map for $1.00.) The Smokies may be the most visited national park in the country but only the roads and parking lots are congested. With over 800 miles of trails, even popular trails are not very busy. The trails in the Smokies are well maintained and well marked. Hikers will appreciate that they’re in a na- tional park. The Smokies, in a temperate rainforest, have a great variety of wildflowers, from the first bloodroot in March to the last asters in Octo- ber, as well as more tree species than all of Europe.

    40Ar/39Ar Ages of Feldspar and Muscovite from the Source and Detritus of the French Broad River, North Carolina by Di Fan A thesis submitted to the Graduate Faculty of Auburn University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Science Auburn, Alabama August 6th, 2016 Keywords: muscovite, K-feldspar, 40Ar/39Ar, geochronology, Blue Ridge, French Broad River Copyright 2016 by Di Fan Approved by Willis E. Hames, Chair, Professor of Geosciences Mark G. Steltenpohl, Professor of Geosciences Haibo Zou, Associate Professor of Geosciences Abstract As the westernmost metamorphic belt of the Appalachians, the Blue Ridge has been the subject of many geochronology studies. The Blue Ridge experienced high-grade deformation and peak metamorphism during Taconic orogeny, followed by a low-grade metamorphic overprint during the Acadian orogeny. The Alleghanian orogeny is the last collisional stage of the Appalachians and associated regional metamorphism and ductile deformation is documented along most of the Piedmont and the Carolina Slate belt. There is still debate, however, as to the extent of Alleghanian metamorphism in the western Blue Ridge. This concern is made more difficult to evaluate because previous work generally did not characterize the history of low-temperature metamorphism of the Blue Ridge in the region between western North Carolina and Tennessee. To address the cooling history of the Blue Ridge, samples were collected in the area of the French Broad River catchment in North Carolina. Single crystals of muscovite from basement and stream sediment samples and K-feldspar from the basement, were dated in this project to avoid the ‘inherited’ ages often associated with high-temperature geochronometers.

  • The Balsams—MST Segment 2
    1 | Mountains-to-Sea Trail Last Updated 8/5/2019 Rays and ridges from Waterrock Knob Photo by Robert Stephens The Balsams—MST Segment 2 WATERROCK KNOB TO PISGAH INN By Jim Grode This 63-mile segment, located in one of the most biodiverse areas of the world, showcases that diversity. Nearly all the major plant communities of the southern Appalachians are represented, from spruce-fir forests typically found in Canada to rich cove forests, and from rhododendron thickets to heath balds—and even a little of the rare spray cliff commu- nity. Around every corner is a view greater than the one before it. And the myriad streams and waterfalls provide delightful coolness even on the hottest summer day. Segment 2 | 2 This segment is also one of the least accessible parts of the MST— although it generally parallels the Blue Ridge Parkway (BRP). Segment 2 crosses a paved road only 7 times in the 54 miles between the US 74 crossing (Eastbound (EB) Mile 9.4, Westbound (WB) Mile 54.2) and its eastern end. The segment is also rugged: elevations range from over 5,800 feet to less than 3,500 feet in less than 10 miles, and there is almost 25,000 feet of climbing and descending over the entire length of the segment. The trail is often rocky, muddy, or indistinct, making travel sometimes difficult. Almost all of Segment 2 is on federally owned land, encompassing the Nantahala and Pisgah National Forests and the BRP. As a result, there is virtually no development and no opportunity for resupply on the segment.

    The Tennessee Eastman Hiking & Canoeing News February 1993 Contents Hiking Canoeing For The Record HIKING POND MOUNTAIN WORK TRIP (Scheduled for Saturday, 6 Feb 93) Leader: Ed Oliver (615.349.6668) Rating: Difficult If the weather is reasonable, we will work on the Pond Mountain relocation. If the club installs the relatively level portions of the relocation this winter and spring, we should be able to open the relocation after the Konnarock Crew and the club completes the remainder of the relocation this summer. The weather in February is somewhat unpredictable. If you are interested in helping with this work, contact Ed Oliver at 349.6668. This work will not involve much if any side hill digging. We will concentrate on cutting and digging out brush and in defining the trail. SHINING ROCK WILDERNESS AREA DAY HIKE (Scheduled for Saturday, 6 Feb 93) Leader: Tom Pridgen (Phone: 615.245.5975) Rating: Difficult We will plan to do a day hike in the Shining Rock Wilderness located in the Pisgah National Forest southwest of Asheville, N.C. Driving time from Kingsport to the trailhead will likely be 2.5 hours, one way. The trip leader has not hiked in this area but knows enough about the area to anticipate at least part of the hiking to be exposed to wind above 5000 feet. Expect it to be COLD. We will try to reach the Shining Rock peak via the Art Loeb Trail from the Blue Ridge Parkway. Hiking distance may be as high as 10 miles (round trip) depending on winter access to parking and may involve considerable (3000 feet) elevation gain if the Parkway is closed because of slick roads.

  • The Southern Blue Ridge (Physiographic Area 23) Partners in Flight Bird Conservation Plan for the Southern Blue Ridge (Physiographic Area 23)
    Partners in Flight Bird Conservation Plan for The Southern Blue Ridge (Physiographic Area 23) Partners in Flight Bird Conservation Plan for The Southern Blue Ridge (Physiographic Area 23) Version 1.0 December 1999 Written by: Chuck Hunter, Robert Katz, David Pashley, and Bob Ford Send reviews, questions, or comments to: Chuck Hunter U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service 1875 Century Blvd. Suite 200 Atlanta, GA 30345 ph: 404-679-7130 SOUTHERN BLUE RIDGE BIRD CONSERVATION PLAN EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Over 155 bird species nest in the Southern Blue Ridge. Widespread and representative species include dark-eyed junco, northern cardinal, black-throated blue warbler, Carolina wren and blue-headed vireo. Appalachian populations of Bewick’s wren, yellow-bellied sapsucker, northern saw-whet owl, and black-capped chickadee, as well as golden-winged, Swainson’s and cerulean warblers are rare or uncommon, have very specific habitat requirements and serve as umbrella, or focal, species for conservation planning efforts. Of these birds, a large proportion is nearctic-neotropical migrants dependent on mature forest. Examples include Louisiana waterthrush, Acadian flycatcher, veery, ovenbird and Canada warbler. Furthermore, species associated with frequently disturbed and/or early successional habitats like prairie warbler, field sparrow, and northern bobwhite have also suffered significant population declines in the recent past and warrant conservation attention.

Topography consists of tall mountains with long broad ridges, steep slopes, deep ravines and wide intermountain valleys.
