Snorkeling With Brook Trout in Great Smoky Mountains National Park

Turns out Fall in Great Smoky Mountains National Park is just as beautiful below the surface - that is if you don't mind a freezing cold snorkel. This was one of the most physically demanding snorkeling adventures I've had, but it was so worth it - the colors of native Southern Appalachian brook trout are pretty hard to beat.

As always, thank you all so much for watching! Wishing everyone a happy Thanksgiving :)

A big thank you to my friend Andrew for making this trip possible! Please check out his work below - he is an INCREDIBLE underwater photographer. He captured some stunning brook trout images.
