Head to the top of the Smokies and spend the night at LeConte Lodge, the highest elevation lodge in the eastern United States. Friday evening will be spent at Tremont, and we’ll head up the mountain the following morning. Along the way, our education staff will share their knowledge of natural history, high elevation ecology, and science. While at the top, you will enjoy spectacular views, hearty meals, and a cozy bed. We’ll return to civilization on Sunday. We suggest you sign-up with a friend, or be prepared to bunk with a new one. Program lasts from Friday dinner to Sunday late lunch.

2008 Cost: $365 (includes all meals, lodging, transportation, and instruction). Full amount is required for registration.
