Trees -- Great Smoky Mountains (N.C. and Tenn.)

Paul M. Fink (1892-1980) of Jonesborough, Tennessee, was an early advocate for the establishment of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. This collection of photographs from 1914 through the 1930s was taken while Fink thoroughly explored the Great Smoky Mountains and surrounding area. A banker and a conservationist, Fink kept a journal of his explorations and published his entries in Backpacking Was the Only Way (1975). On the back of this undated photograph, Fink wrote: This little sharp hump in the upper lefthand corner could be recognized anywhere - the end of Hughes Ridge. Close up is another picture.
