It's been almost 1 month since Helene tore through the community of Spruce Pine, North Carolina and even though scars remain. Messages of positivity to show the world that they will rise up again after the storm have been popping up all over town. I got to know a lot of community members while working on this portion of my future documentary here and I have never felt so welcomed in my life. Truly amazing folks here. #hurricanehelene #Helene #wncstrong #wnc #wncmountains #AppalachianMountains #appalachiantrail #Appalachians #sprucepine #sprucepinenc #flood #flashflood #earthextreme #earthoutdoors #earth #climatechange #climatecrisis #globalwarming #NCwx #northcarolinastrong #stormchasing #stormchaser #dronephotography #drone
