Rocky Top, Tennessee watercolor Rocky Top is a panoramic view from the famous summit, located in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park just east of Cades Cove. The smallest of three peaks on Thunderhead Mountain, this natural grassy bald is the supposed inspiration for the popular University of Tennessee fight song. Heath Claiborne hiked and camped out in nearby Spence Field to create this beautiful rendition. Flaming orange azaleas and rhododendron grace the peak, while the Appalachian Trail winds through the maze of rock. |
