That had to be some cold air up there! AVL was in deep freeze most of the day.

It was 26 at the time with a 20 mph wind! All the rocks were Ice Covered all weekend!

They’re closing parts now. Black Balsam Knob and Pisgah Inn drives are closed. I once asked Parkway Headquarters if I could drive a snowmobile up to Black Balsam Knob if the Parkway was closed. I wanted to get photos of deep snow. Answer: yes, as long as I told the ranger where I was going.

I would love to do that! I am sure the tunnels have some ice in them by now and with the winds they are predicting the next few days I can understand why the higher elevations are starting to close
