Space Needle in Gatlinburg Tennessee

We took the elevator to the top of the Gatlinburg Space Needle while we had our niece in town.  There was a very nice young lady running the place while we were there who showed us some great photos OF LOCAL BEARS she took recently!  She also had encounters with elk!

The Space Needle does offer some great views of the town!  It is very open and just a great place to hang out and see the area!

Like I said, it is very open, and there aren't any protective glass barriers or anything like that!  You can truly feel the wind blowing around as you look out!  I get a little shaky when I look over the edge!
