Dolly Sods Wilderness 📍

Looking across the Red Creek to Alder Run Trail which was impassable without getting quite wet due to high water levels in the Red Creek. While many of the colors were faded, there was still some nice color in the heath, it's bright red color emblematic of the Dolly Sods in the highest locations along the Allegheny Front.

Looking west from Canaan Mountain down into the valley.

With the high winds and dry conditions, Mountain Laurel isn't as common up at Dolly Sods as it is in Canaan Heights and other locations. But you can find it in more protected parts of Dolly Sods, like on this location on the Western side of the Allegheny Front.

While not a lot of color on the lower peaks, it was still a beautiful early October Day looking down from the Allegheny Front at the lower peaks towards North River Notch and Petersburgh, West Virginia.
