Off the Grid

Made an approximate 6 mile roundtrip(RT) on a route that is walked by those famaliar w/ this section of the GSMNP. Usually staff, some locals, and the folks maintaining the boar population. Easy to moderate terrain which requires close attention to detail as the route is not marked or very clear in some areas. The streams are full and beautiful flowing over, under, and around boulders, w/ some large pools to sit, or even swim in some. This blog will not reveal the location it is only noted to ensure any readers that we are out in the woods. This hike was made on Jan. 6th/08
