A terrific video blog on a trail I have as yet to do. I believe it will be a trail I hike on our next visit to the GSM. I’ll also have to add a copy of “History Hikes of the Smokies” to my GSM book collection.

p.s. Love the plastic bags and rubber bands idea as well.
I love the trick for keeping your shoes dry! I will use that one and pass it on to my own readers as well.
Your blog was very enjoyable to read and portrays what a wonderful place the Great Smokey Mountains National Park to visit, hike, and backpack!
Thanks for the great video and history of Road Prong Trail. I just did the hike Sunday (Sept. 5th, down hill then back uphill). It’s quite steep and can be tough on shaky knees.
