This photograph shows members of the Smoky Mountains Hiking Club posing at the state line between Newfound Gap and Mount Alexander “Jump-off.” On this early January day in 1931, the snow was deep, up to 3 feet in places. The picture is in the collection of the Smoky Mountains Hiking Club, an organization that formed after a group of outdoor enthusiasts hiked up to Mount LeConte in October 1924.
