Me and the family are heading to the Gatlinburg, TN area early in the morning. I have been to TN multiple times, but never to the eastern part of the state. We are staying in a cabin in Sevierville, which is a little north. Looking forward to driving through the great state of KY and relaxing in the mountains for a few days. Maybe when I get back I can actually get into the woods and hunt some deer. I have only been out once so far this season.

Hope you have a deep wallet, you're going to need it, Gatlinburg and nearby Pigeon Forge are two of the biggest tourist traps east of the Mississippi. Can't stand either one personally, but the scenic beauty of that region is worth the trip. Few things can make you catch your breath quite like a Smoky Mountain sunrise, and the sunsets are equally spectacular.

Just got back from ther I loved the park and the trails we went in to town on Saturday night to have dinner. We had a good time but mostly stayed in the park.

Hope you have a great time and make a lot of good memories.

Sevierville = Bass Pro! Pigeon Forge is a the epitome of a tourist trap. Gatlinburg isn't quite as bad. When I go down I prefer to spend the vast majority of time inside the boundaries of the 500,000+ acres of national treasure that was taken out of private ownership and put into public lands so that generations would be able to enjoy. It's a bit of haul in North Carolina, but the last few times we've been down, we camp in the Cataloochee Valley of the park.
