#Snow falls near Split Rock on #GrandfatherMtn during the early hours of Dec. 7. While wind makes it difficult to accurately measure snowfall, temperatures continued to drop through morning. By noon, temps had fallen to 24.4° F, wind chill of 8.7°.

Check out this #TrailCamTuesday from #HarrisLake! Deer often commuicate through body language, as is evident in these photos taken in January of 2018. In the first photo, the deer are wary of each other, while in the second they have accepted each other and are at ease.
