High on LeConte
Friday, March 12th, 2010
High on LeConte, that's the name of the new blog from the folks that run the Mt. LeConte Lodge.
As I mentioned in a posting earlier in the week, the winter caretaker at the LeConte Lodge is retiring his current website as of today, and has already launched a new one. In that same posting I mentioned that the management for the LeConte Lodge has decided to publish their own blog on their own website.
A couple of days after posting this article, a representative from the LeConte Lodge left this comment on the blog posting:
I would just like to share with you the new LeConte Lodge blog. The management just wanted a more permanent site that would be around for years to come. I hope you enjoy the new one as much as you liked Doug's. We are very grateful to him for watching the lodge this winter and sharing his experiences with you. I hope we are able to do the same. Check it out at www.highonleconte.com.
On the new site, the LeConte management states that:
It is our goal to give you the latest trail conditions, weather, and photos from atop Mt. LeConte.
Welcome to the blogosphere! I look forward to staying current on what's going on atop the mountain.
