Chimney Tops

Smoky Mountains


The Cherokee Indians called it Duniskwalguni, meaning ‘forked antlers’. I might use the same term, if I could pronounce it?! Whatever the case, it’s really a two mile hike up a mountain with a steeper than typical incline; a.k.a., a calves-burner. But, now that you’re at the top, why not enjoy the view on a print or other product available through my shops? You can see more, here:

      I’m with you there, my friend & thank you. I wish I knew what type of rocks these are, but I do know that I saw old carvings of initials and dates from the 1960-70’s. Have a great weekend, Tiffany 😎
