Smokemont

The last leg of our southern journey took us into and through the Great Smoky Mountain National Park, which we've visited numerous times before, starting in 1969. We spent the night at the Smokemont campground, reconnoitering a bit for the coming summer, and then headed on to the amusement trifecta of Cherokee, Gatlinburg, and Pigeon Forge.

Myself, at Mt. Le Conte Lodge, 1969

Vicki, at Smokemont (?), 1969; that's your tent, Tawana!

Our encampment, 2022

The temps were down to 32F that night, and yet there were
dozens of people camping in tents; hearty souls

You are camping a little more upscale these days than back in 1969!
