LeConte Lodge

- A Centennial History of a Smoky Mountain Landmark
Af: Mike Hembree, Tom Layton Engelsk Paperback
Tjek vores konkurrenters priser

Of the 13 million visitors who annually flock to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, fewer than one in a thousand are fortunate enough to spend a night at the LeConte Lodge. Continuing over 100 years of service, Eastern America''s highest lodge still operates with a waiting list, thriving so far off the grid that laundry is transported by llamas and food is ferried in by helicopter. Visitors must brave one of six trails to the Lodge''s entrance, the shortest of which is five miles. Despite its remote location in Tennessee, LeConte Lodge remains a prominent tourist destination as it celebrates its centennial.

Written by two journalists who have been making the trek for decades, this book reveals a history that predates the establishment of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. The book features stories that contextualize the Lodge''s development, from the log bunkhouse that marked the property in the 1920s to the flourishing Lodge there today. It also explores the history of Mount Le Conte, the namesake peak that houses the Lodge.
