爱上田纳西州

尽管在这张宁静的秋日图片中看起来可能不像,但大烟山国家公园里的咆哮叉却赢得了它凶猛的名字。这条小溪下降了2500英尺,仅超过2英里,是一个陡坡。大雨过后,怒吼的叉子变成了一股激流,声音在山腰回荡。但在干旱期,溪流平静下来,更多的是一条潺潺的小溪,如图所示沿着咆哮的福克汽车自然小径。受欢迎的5.5英里环形车道经过瀑布、保存完好的历史原木小屋和风景优美的森林俯瞰,在每年的这个时候,森林达到了秋天的颜色峰值,呈现出醒目的黄色、橙色和红色。这些只是使大烟山成为全国最受欢迎的国家公园的一些因素。

Although it might not look like it in this image of a tranquil fall day, Roaring Fork in Great Smoky Mountains National Park has earned its ferocious name. The stream descends 2,500 feet over just 2 miles—a steep drop. After heavy rains, Roaring Fork transforms into a whitewater rush, the sound echoing off the mountainsides. But during drier spells, the stream quiets to more of a babbling brook, as seen here along the Roaring Fork Motor Nature Trail. The popular 5.5-mile loop drive passes waterfalls, well-preserved historic log cabins, and scenic overlooks of a forest that during this time of year reaches its fall color peak, exploding in bold yellows, oranges, and reds. These are just some of the things that make Great Smoky Mountains the most popular national park in the country.
