On the back of the most recent ATC magazine there are two photos showing a helicopter dropping off supplies in a field with a big mountain looming behind it. The caption says that it is dropping off trail work supplies on top of Mount Cammerer. This struck me as a little odd, as I have never seen this place, despite having been to MC a few times. More over, Mount Cammerer is the highest thing in the area. It would hard to be on top and have a mountain looming above. So, I started thinking about where this place could be and am stumped. It isn't at Low Gap because there isn't anywhere big enough to drop a chopper in. I don't think it is at the trail junction on the other side (Lower Mount Cammerer trail), but haven't been there for a while.
So, does any one know where the photo was taken? I don't immediately recognize it as any place in the Smokys, but my suspicion is that it is at the old Birch Spring shelter, north of Fontana. The only other place I can think of would be Spence Field, but the mountain in the picture doesn't look anything like Rocky Top or Thunderhead.
