The Highland Rim and Murfreesboro TTA chapters hosted a camping and hiking trip this week in the Smokies and near Shining Rock Wilderness Area off the Blue Ridge Parkway near Maggie Valley, NC. We hiked the short, steep trail to Waterrock Knob on Monday. Tuesday, we hiked the Rough Fork, Caldwell Fork and Hemphill Bald trail loop. Wednesday it was the Art Loeb Trail to Black Balsam Knob and Tennant Mountain. Dinner at J. Arthur’s in Maggie Valley. Rain moved in Wednesday night so it was a foggy Thursday morning. We camped at Mile High Campground at Mile Marker 458 on the Blue Ridge Parkway. Spectacular view from our campsite!
Hikers were Joe Campbell, Joan Hartvigsen, Barbara Key, Charles Key, Lora McBride, Joni Perrine, Sara Pollard, Georganne Ross, Paulo Smith, and Kathy Stutts.
