Mount LeConte from across river, Gatlinburg, TN, circa 1934

About this postcard

A view across a river toward Mount LeConte, with Gatlinburg's valley and scattered buildings in the middle ground and layered ridges of the Great Smoky Mountains beyond. Trees frame the foreground, and the sky carries warm color. Mount LeConte is one of the highest peaks in Great Smoky Mountains National Park, and by the 1930s Gatlinburg was becoming a gateway for visitors to the new park. The scene places the town within the steep, wooded landscape that made the area a destination.
