Title: Noah "Bud" Ogle Cabin in Autumn
Location: Roaring Fork Motor Nature Trail, Cherokee Orchard Road, Great Smoky Mountains National Park, Tennessee

The Noah "Bud" Ogle cabin stands within a narrow corridor of hardwood forest along the Roaring Fork Motor Nature Trail, surrounded by a dense canopy of trees in the full color of early autumn. Captured in October, the cabin is framed by a rich palette of red, orange, and yellow foliage, with overhanging branches and scattered leaves marking the trail that leads to the structure. This image captures the intimate relationship between a preserved example of early twentieth-century mountain settlement and the surrounding forest at the height of its seasonal transformation, illustrating the manner in which historic structures remain embedded within the continuously shifting natural environment of the Smokies.
